It was about 10 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and me were sitting there discussing the weekend's rugby results, waiting for the seventh fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we received the call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Hockley and put petrol in her diesel customised Volvo lease car in error. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, since it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we could get to her rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging at.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Cheshire we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously don't switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this scenario don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the specialised knowledge and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

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.
