It was about 9 pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and I were relaxing going over the weekend's footy results, waiting for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Old Chalford and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel sunflower yellow Dodge Charger rental. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly happen.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Oxfordshire we have discovered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Old Chalford - Wrong Fuel in Car Old Chalford

I enjoyed a terrific afternoon cycling during my off day and felt satisfied the next day as I set out to assist a young family holidaying in Old Chalford. They conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their elegant Alfa Romeo164, and the car was about half an hour away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the wife berating her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you actually find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this goes on continuously in Oxfordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he in spite of everything had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyhow, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove away I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
