It was around ten pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting talking about the footy results, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Pheasants Hill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel teal Audi Q5 rental car in error. She was fairly irritated apparently, stating "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that things like this sadly happen. She was able to move the car into a secure area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could find the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and much less concerned. A fuel drain in Buckinghamshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Buckinghamshire we have identified increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the car.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it immediately. And obviously never turn over the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in RG9 Postcode - Pheasants Hill Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Wednesday and we were on my way to assist an elder lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel expensive Mitsubishi in Pheasants Hill. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped her location into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I had only purchased it a few days back because my old car, which I'd owned for in excess of 30 years, finally died". I finished the drain and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a pleasant Buckinghamshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Pheasants Hill - Wrong Fuel in Car Pheasants Hill

I had a terrific day hiking on my holiday and was feeling contented the following day as I was en route to assist a young family on vacation in Pheasants Hill. They had stopped after inserting petrol in their light green Lexus IS F, and were about an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and laughed as I listened to the lady telling her spouse off for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this problem occurs quite frequently in Buckinghamshire and that it's nothing to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyway, I extracted all the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted goodbye and pondered on what my wife would ask me if I made the same blunder... I'd never ever 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.
