It was after 8 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were relaxing there talking over the footy rankings, prepared for the 8th job of the day to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Highams Park and put petrol in a diesel Vauxhall lease car. The unfortunate lady was very agitated apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately can happen.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you may have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s composed of a mixture of urea and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue is certainly harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

If in case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course never start up the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances very quickly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.
