It was just after 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were seated talking about the weekend's tennis results, waiting around for the next call for the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in North Tidworth and put petrol in her diesel Honda rental car. The unfortunate lady was very irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably can happen.

AdBlue Contamination

In Wiltshire we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the car.

So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the practical competence and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances pretty expediently.

Remember that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
