It was just after seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Dan and me were sitting going over the recent golf, prepared for the 8th call to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Cinderford and filled petrol in her diesel mate's Seat Ibiza lease car. She was rather distressed it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from the office, we could find her swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Gloucestershire we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not knowing the right way to use it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And absolutely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Contact us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
