It was after five pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were seated there talking about the football, at the ready for the next call to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Hury and filled petrol in a diesel work's Volvo S40 rental. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed apparently, crying "I cannot believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected space and, because it was no more than a few minutes from us, we could get to the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and a lot less apprehensive. A fuel drain in County Durham done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout County Durham we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not knowing how to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And certainly take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Call us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid 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 VA 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.
