It was just after 8 pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and me were seated there discussing the tennis, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Dunsa and put the wrong fuel in a diesel matte black Cadillac Escalade EXT lease car. The poor lady was very affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was no more than a short distance away from us, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and not so stressed. A job in Derbyshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Derbyshire we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

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

Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And definitely don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In case you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

I enjoyed a great day golfing on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a young couple on holiday in Dunsa. They conked out after putting diesel in their wife's VW Tiguan, and were around an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I listened to the gal berating her man for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you even find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this situation happens all the time in Derbyshire and that it's really nothing at all to fret about, and yet he yet still had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I drained out all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove away I shouted good bye and wondered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!

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.
