It was around seven pm on a Friday and while we were assured a rainless night, it had not ceased pouring! Paul and I were seated commenting on the tennis results, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in East Lavant and put the wrong fuel in her diesel light blue Daihatsu Charade rental by mistake. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things do happen.

The incorrect fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the motel she was living at.

AdBlue In Your Diesel
All around West Sussex we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?
As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And of course be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Any time you end up in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised skills and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
