It was just after 7 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and me were sitting there commenting on the weekend's football results, waiting around for the seventh call of the day to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Plaish and filled petrol in a diesel Audi hire car. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe space and, as it was only a few miles away from our van, we could reach the woman right away. The bad fuel was taken out so she could return to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away contented and a lot less worried.

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can fix any associated problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Shropshire we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely take care not to crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations pretty quickly.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
