It was before ten pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated going over the weekend's rugby, ready for the sixth call of the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Highbury and filled petrol in a diesel MINI rental car. She was pretty irritated apparently, saying "I just can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was just a short distance from us, we were able to find her without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off contented and not so worried. One more job in Islington done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Islington we are identifying a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the automobile.
So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
Whenever you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the specialised skills and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to handle in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases pretty quickly.
Remember that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.
