It was just before seven pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were relaxing there talking about the tennis, at the ready for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Bowsey Hill and put petrol in a diesel metallic blue Fiat Doblo rental in error. She was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure area and, since it was only a few miles from our van, we could arrive at the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and much less worried. Another fuel drain in Berkshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in case you’ve put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that’s made from a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Ahhh, that was a quality night's sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Tuesday and we were en route to assist an elder lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel buff BMW 330 in Bowsey Hill. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I popped her location in the TomTom and was with her within an hour. I got to the car and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was working she said, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel seeing that I had just acquired it a couple of days ago right after my previous car, which I had for over twenty five years, inevitably died on me".

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.
