It was around five pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated there discussing the recent rugby results, ready for the 8th call that day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Wickham Heath and put the wrong fuel in a diesel daughter's Seat Toledo rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat agitated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was no more than a few miles from us, we were able to reach the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off relaxed and not so stressed. A job in Berkshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do if you’ve poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be pulled into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, causing devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• 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.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
