Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Wiltshire we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking spot. Assuming you did start the car you will likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel is likely to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

Petrol in Diesel Warminster - Warminster Wrong Fuel in Car

I had appreciated a great day golfing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Warminster. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their MG, and were approximately an hour away. I turned up at their location and laughed as I listened to the woman chastising her husband for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you possibly be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing occurs frequently in Wiltshire and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got an earful. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove off I shouted farewell and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was about sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Ryan were relaxing reading a couple of old articles. This was an uncommon restful hour in Wiltshire. Actually it was indeed that relaxing that when the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The person explained: "I finished my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in my Mercedes". I instructed him to inform us exactly where he was situated and we hit the road, reaching him in Warminster no more than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the engine. He said many thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were heading back home we found two girls on the edge of the highway who looked like they suffered a puncture. So we stopped to change it, much to their elation.
