It was close to seven pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were resting there commenting on the rugby results, waiting for the sixth job for the day to come in. Before long we received the call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Turnford and filled petrol in her diesel mate's Mazda MX-5 lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away satisfied and less stressed. A job in Hertfordshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it if you’ve poured AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made out of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually disastrous to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, triggering serious and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
