It was after 6 pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing talking about the sports results, at the ready for the 8th job to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Biggin and put the wrong fuel in her diesel super Mazda B-Series rental car. The poor lady was pretty agitated apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things sadly often happen. She was able to move the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from our van, we were able to find the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and less concerned. Yet another job in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we are encountering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never switch on the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.
