It was before 8 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Brian and I were resting going over the sports rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Clay Cross and filled petrol in her diesel green Smart Car hire car. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to find the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could go home to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home contented and less worried. A misfuel correction in Derbyshire done well in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

In Derbyshire we have found more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the car - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Phone us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

They had pulled over after filling diesel into their cobalt blue Cadillac STS, and they were roughly half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and laughed as I listened to the girl chastising her man for being so foolish.

I attempted to tell her that this problem comes to pass regularly in Derbyshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful by his missus. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyway, I drained out all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some right fuel.
