It was about 9 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not stopped pouring!

Inevitably we had a call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Leicester Forest East and put petrol in a diesel mustard yellow Audi Quattro lease car. The poor lady was quite agitated it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a protected position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we could reach the customer right away.

They will be able to take care of any of the typical troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

In Leicestershire we are discovering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers being unsure of how to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
