It was after five pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ryan and I were seated talking over the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Blackhill and put petrol in a diesel trusty Porsche Cayenne rental in error. She was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things regrettably often happen.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout County Durham we have identified a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Phone us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle all types of AdBlue contamination.

I got the drain done and she offered me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a delightful County Durham lady!
