It was around 5 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were resting talking about the weekend's golf, waiting around for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Barber Booth and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel dirty red Lexus IS F lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was pretty troubled apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things regrettably can happen.

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Derbyshire we are discovering progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. If perhaps you did start the car you would probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Should you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the technical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

I'm not very interested in doing work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had only just left the family after having a wonderful Sunday roast cooked by the better half, and I was en route to assist a gentleman after he had filled the wrong petrol in his raspberry red Ford. He was stationed in Barber Booth and so I arrived with him almost immediately. Just as I pulled up at the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on stuff and didn't perceive I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about any kind of damage simply by starting it?" I explained generally there probably should not be any harm and also I would personally remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and another contented client could continue on their ride without any subsequent hassle. He could not stop thanking me, and this is what can make earning a living on Sundays in Derbyshire that tiny bit better for me personally!

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.
