It was about 6 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were seated there commenting on the recent footy results, waiting around for the sixth telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Walmley and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Jaguar lease car. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this sadly happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was just a few miles away from us, we could find her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive home contented and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Birmingham well done in my opinion!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Birmingham we are finding a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to people not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at once. And absolutely don't start the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel may well cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases rather simply.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Birmingham to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages.
