It was about eight pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing talking over the tennis results, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Wormwood Scrubs and put petrol in her diesel Kia lease car by mistake. She was very agitated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I've wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the car to a safe area and, seeing as it was just a few miles from where we were, we were able to arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less concerned. Another job in Hammersmith well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do if you have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made of a blend of deionized water and urea (32.5%).It is actually damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will be injected into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may well contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases rather easily.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.
