It was after 9 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there talking about the tennis results, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Wimblington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel beautiful Fiat Nuova 500 rental car in error. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure position and, because it was only a few minutes away from our van, we could find her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and much less anxious. Another job in Cambridgeshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Cambridgeshire we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely never crank the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

In the event that you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
