AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Gloucestershire we have identified increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the car.
So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?
As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And most certainly take care not to switch on the motor - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may very likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.
Contact us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

What a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Wednesday and I was en route to assist an elder lady after she had put petrol in her diesel light blue Austin Mini in Olveston. I had been told she had left the filling station and was stranded along a rural lane along the way to visit her family. I popped her location straight into the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I'm getting quite absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had just purchased it a few days back right after my former one, which I'd owned for more than thirty years, eventually died". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Gloucestershire woman!

I'm not ever overly keen on carrying out work Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the wife and kids following a magnificent roast made for us by the missus, and I was en route to sort out a guy who filled the wrong petrol in his mustard yellow Renault Clio. He was located in Olveston so it wouldn't be long before I arrived with him. As I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my concentration on other considerations and failed to ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought about any kind of damage simply by starting it?" I explained that there shouldn't be any kind of damage and also I would remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled up with the correct fuel, and thus another content client had the ability to continue his trip without any difficulty.
