AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Devon we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.
Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you may likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases quite easily.
Be aware though that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Fuel Rescue Okehampton - Okehampton Wrong Fuel Assist
I enjoyed a perfect day fishing on the weekend and felt contented with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a young couple who were holidaying in Okehampton. They'd stopped after adding the wrong fuel in their BMW, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed as I listened to the woman telling off her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this happens on daily basis in Devon and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would tell me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!
