It was just before seven pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting there commenting on the weekend's golf results, waiting around for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Cambourne and put petrol in a diesel rust red Cadillac Escalade ESV hire car. She was very affected it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, as it was just a few miles off from where we were, we were able to reach the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the car.

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

Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it asap. And certainly never crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to attend to every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Cambourne

A teen who had only recently passed his driving test had misfueled his Ferarri red Volkswagen Tiguan by having unleaded in the diesel at the service station close to Cambourne. He said, "This is the third occasion I have filled up my vehicle since I paid for it and I don't know how to proceed." He was scared as his step father had only just paid for the car. He located our company on the net and so called us right away, frightened about what he ought to do. Our guy on the telephones advised him that we would be on scene in 45 minutes and to not do anything to his vehicle while he waited. We carried out the fuel drain on his vehicle and he stated how surprised he was that it was dealt with so rapidly and no problem .

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.
