It was after seven pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and me were sitting talking about the sports results, at the ready for the sixth call for the day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Southminster and put the wrong fuel in a diesel silver Dodge Avenger rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat agitated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, since it was only a few miles off from where we were, we could reach the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off contented and not so anxious. Yet another job in Essex done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of people not understanding how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it immediately. And obviously be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Whenever you get in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the technical skills and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.
