It was just before 8 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated commenting on the football results, prepared for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Sherford and put petrol in a diesel cobalt blue BMW 8 Series rental car by mistake. She was rather irritated apparently, crying "I still can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure position and, as it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home calm and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Somerset done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Somerset we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly be careful not to start the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

In case you end up in this situation don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians possess the specialised skills and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
