It was just after 9 pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not ceased raining!

Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Byfleet and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel mustard yellow Peugeot 107 rental car by mistake. The poor lady was rather troubled apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Surrey we have encountered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously never start up the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Phone us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.
