It was just after 8 pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the tennis rankings, waiting for the sixth job to arrive. In due time we got a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Lower Swell and filled petrol in a diesel super BMW rental car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly irritated apparently, saying "I cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could get to the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. One more misfuel correction in Gloucestershire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Gloucestershire we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course do not switch on the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.
