It was just after six pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were sitting there commenting on the football rankings, at the ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Howe and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather affected apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!"

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed if you may have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be squirted into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, leading to serious and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol may contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
