It was just before 9 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Brian and me were sitting there discussing the weekend's sports rankings, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Thornton and put petrol in a diesel Ford lease car in error. The poor lady was quite troubled apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from us, we were able to get to the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Leicestershire well done in my mind!

Fuel Drain Thornton - Thornton Petrol in Diesel
What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a bright Sunday and I was off to help an elder woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG in Thornton. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a rural lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I punched her location into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I reached the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel since I had only just got it several days back after my former car, which I used for over 30 years, inevitably died". I completed the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Leicestershire woman!

AdBlue In Diesel
In Leicestershire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the car.
So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly be careful not to crank the car - not even to move it away from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will often cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations quite simply.
Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
