It was just before 9 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting talking about the recent golf rankings, ready for the sixth job of the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Southborough and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart hire car by mistake. The poor lady was rather agitated apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected area and, since it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off satisfied and less anxious. Another job in Kent done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Kent we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not being aware of how to work with it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you will probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances quite simply.
Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
