It was around 7 pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a rainless day, it had not ceased raining! Paul and me were sitting there talking over the recent golf results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Bishops Castle and put petrol in a diesel Audi rental car. The poor thing was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few miles from the office, we were able to get to the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away relaxed and less concerned. A job in Shropshire well done in my books!

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Shropshire we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel will result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
