It was around six pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ray and I were relaxing there going over the football results, waiting for the seventh job of the day to come in. Finally we got a call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Thornhill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from us, we could get to the woman without delay.

AdBlue In Diesel
All over West Yorkshire we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not being aware of how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the automobile.
Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.
If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never crank the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.
Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Wrong Fuel Drain Thornhill - Thornhill Wrong Fuel Assist
I enjoyed a terrific evening hiking during my holiday and felt pleased the following working day as I was on the way to assist a new couple who were away in Thornhill. They had broken down after adding petrol into their Audi, and they were approximately an hour away. I turned up at their position and laughed while I listened to the woman telling off her husband for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this situation occurs everyday in West Yorkshire and that it's nothing to worry about, nonetheless he all the same got his ear bent by his better half. Poor chap. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some right fuel. As they drove away I shouted farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me if I made the same error... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
