It was just after 7 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were resting there talking about the recent tennis rankings, ready for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Sutton and filled petrol in her diesel cobalt blue Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class rental by mistake. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was only a few miles off from our van, we could arrive at the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. Yet another job in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Cambridgeshire we are encountering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not understanding the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

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

Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And definitely be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In the event that you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Call us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
