It was before seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated there talking about the footy results, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Bounds Green and filled petrol in a diesel Lexus rental car. The unfortunate lady was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this happen.

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Haringey we have identified progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.

So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations very quickly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
