It was just before 7 pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's footy, waiting for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Leighton Bromswold and filled petrol in her diesel khaki green Hyundai Entourage rental by mistake. She was pretty affected by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a short distance from us, we were able to reach her without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Cambridgeshire we have identified increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not knowing how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it asap. And most certainly take care not to switch on the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you have started the car you would most likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct all kinds of AdBlue 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.

• 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.
