It was just before 8 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the recent golf, waiting around for the next job of the day to come in. Before long we received a call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Lulsgate Bottom and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel grey Jeep Wrangler hire car by mistake. She was somewhat distressed it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected spot and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from our van, we were able to get to her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. One more job in Somerset done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Somerset we have seen progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?
Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to move it into a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Call us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

This really was the night shift. It was about sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become rather uneventful until now, and me and John were relaxing reading through a couple of old papers. That was an uncommon restful moment in Somerset. It was in fact so relaxing that the instant the telephone rang I jumped! The voice explained: "I just finished my evening shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a metallic yellow Dodge Avenger". We asked him to tell us just where the vehicle was situated and we left, getting to him in Lulsgate Bottom an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the car. He said many thanks for coming out so rapidly. While we were going back home we spotted two women at the side of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. Obviously we pulled up to change it, to their delight.

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
