Inevitably we received a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Faringdon and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Kia rental in error. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!"

AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Oxfordshire we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists not being totally sure how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.
If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In case you have started the car you may likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.
Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel container sitting at the rear of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.
Out of Fuel Support
Run out of fuel in Faringdon (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) and fill your car or truck. They will fix any of the normal troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel in Car Faringdon - Faringdon Fuel Drain

Wrong Fuel in Car Faringdon - Faringdon Wrong Fuel
I had a fantastic afternoon hiking on the weekend and felt contented the following day as I headed out to help a new family vacationing in Faringdon. They conked out after filling diesel in their MG, and were close to an hour away. I turned up at their car and laughed while I heard to the woman berating her hubby for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this situation comes to pass continuously in Oxfordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Poor boy. In any case, I drained the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the very same error... I would personally never ever live it down!
