It was just before 10 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting talking over the recent football rankings, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Harlesthorpe and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mitsubishi hire car. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things regrettably happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman swiftly.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in the event that you have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it right away. And obviously never switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances very swiftly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
