Ray and I were sitting commenting on the recent rugby results, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain to come in. Finally we received a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Chalk and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Ford rental car. The unfortunate lady was rather distressed apparently, saying "I still can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!"

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water.Adblue tends to be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't crank the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note however that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.
