It was around eight pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and me were sitting commenting on the weekend's football results, at the ready for the next call for the day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling garage in Paddington and put petrol in her diesel Volkswagen lease car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly irritated it seemed, saying "I can not believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly can happen.

AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Westminster we have discovered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.
Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is likely to produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases rather expediently.
Take note that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Recent Fuel Drains in Paddington
Several stories:
Now I'm not so enthusiastic about doing work on weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd just left the family filled with a fantastic Sunday roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was on the way to help a gentleman who filled the wrong fuel in his Land Rover. He was somewhere in Paddington therefore I arrived on scene rapidly. Just as I arrived behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my concentration on stuff and didn't realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about some problems as a result of starting it?" I determined generally there should not be damage and also I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained at once. As expected I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and then another content motorist could continue on his journey without any subsequent bother. The gentleman could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what makes working on Sundays in Westminster just that tiny bit easier in my opinion!
