It was just before eight pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated there discussing the recent football, ready for the sixth job for the day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Kirkcaldy and Dysart and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus rental in error. The poor lady was rather affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately do happen.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made out of a mixture of high-purity urea and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing serious and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. If you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases quite swiftly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.
