It was after 9 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting talking over the recent sports results, waiting for the sixth telephone call to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Flackwell Heath and put petrol in a diesel metallic blue Mercedes M-Class lease car by mistake. She was rather troubled it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to move the car into a secure space and, as it was only a few miles from our van, we could find the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home calm and less stressed. Another fuel drain in Buckinghamshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Buckinghamshire we have encountered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people not understanding the right way to use it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course take care not to crank the car - not even to move it to a parking place. In case you did start the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Phone us if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Flackwell Heath - Wrong Fuel in Car Flackwell Heath

I enjoyed a perfect day cycling on my day off and was feeling delighted the next morning as I set out to aid a new couple away in Flackwell Heath. They'd broken down after putting diesel in their Ferarri red Isuzu Amigo, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and smirked while I listened to the wife telling off her spouse for actually being so stupid. "How could you even be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this happens regularly in Buckinghamshire and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, and yet he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his missus. Poor boy. Anyhow, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive away I waved good bye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I would under no circumstances live it down!

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.
