It was close to 10 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining!

In due time we got the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Alcaston and put petrol in a diesel raspberry red Peugeot 309 lease car in error. The poor thing was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I've destroyed the car!

AdBlue In Diesel
All over Shropshire we have identified more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.
Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?
As the product is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Alcaston
Now I'm certainly not too hot for doing the job weekends, and a week ago was no different. I had only just left the family after having a wonderful Sunday roast cooked for me by the missus, and I was en route to deal with a fellow who had put the wrong fuel in his metallic silver Chevrolet Camaro. He was only in Alcaston so it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. As I pulled up behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on other stuff and did not realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused any damage as a result of starting it?" I stated there should not be any damage and also that I'd personally get the fuel drained right away. It goes without saying that I removed the fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and then another contented client had the ability to continue on his traveling without any hassle. He did not stop thanking me, and that can make carrying out work on Sundays in Shropshire a tiny bit easier for me personally!
