It was close to 7 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and me were sitting there discussing the recent footy rankings, waiting for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Paston and filled petrol in a diesel expensive Volkswagen Beetle rental in error. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could reach the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away contented and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

In case you discover yourself to be in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the technical competence and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Paston - Wrong Fuel in Car Paston

I had enjoyed a wonderful evening cycling on the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next day as I was en route to help a young couple on holiday in Paston. They had pulled over after putting petrol in their green Peugeot 309, and they were roughly an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her husband for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this takes place on daily basis in Cambridgeshire and that it is nothing to worry about, however he all the same got an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyhow, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and pondered on what my wife would ask me if perhaps I made the same error... 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.
