It was around 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were resting going over the recent golf rankings, prepared for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we got the call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Castle Frome and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel partner's Jeep Comanche rental car by mistake. She was fairly affected apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off contented and less stressed. One more fuel drain in Herefordshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Herefordshire we are identifying progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly do not crank the engine - not even to move it from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Phone us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
