It was just after 9 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing talking over the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. Eventually we got the call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Woolvers Hill and filled petrol in a diesel metallic grey Lexus LS rental car. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to move the car into a secure space and, because it was only a short distance away from us, we could find the woman swiftly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and a lot less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
How to proceed in the event that you’ve poured AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?
AdBlue is a liquid made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

- Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
