AdBlue In Diesel
In Norfolk we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly due to motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?
Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never start the car - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.
Should you discover yourself to be in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the technical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NR21 Postcode - Hindringham Misfueling
Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Monday and I was en route to help an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel bright white VW Beetle in Hindringham. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location plugged in the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I'd only just acquired it a few days ago when my old one, which I had had for about thirty years, eventually died on me". I got the job done and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Norfolk lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Hindringham - Wrong Fuel in Car Hindringham
I appreciated a wonderful afternoon golfing on the weekend and felt contented the next morning as I headed out to help a young couple holidaying in Hindringham. They had stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their expensive Ford Fiesta, and were about an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smiled as I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this takes place frequently in Norfolk and that it's nothing to stress about, even so he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted goodbye and wondered what my wife would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
