It was after ten pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were seated there commenting on the footy rankings, waiting around for the 6th call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in West Thirston and put petrol in a diesel cream VW Tiguan hire car in error. She was somewhat troubled it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing that it was only a short distance from our van, we could reach the woman right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off calm and a lot less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Northumberland done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
How to proceed if you may have poured AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?
AdBlue is a solution that’s made of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is certainly harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

I got the location punched in the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour or so. I reached the location and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the work she told me, "I have been becoming rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I'd only bought it a few days ago when my old car, which I had used for more than thirty years, eventually died". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thank you. What a precious Northumberland woman!
