It was before six pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were relaxing there discussing the sports rankings, waiting around for the sixth job of the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Model Village and put petrol in a diesel light green Lexus LFA lease car by mistake. She was fairly agitated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was just a few miles away from us, we could find the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and much less concerned. A job in Derbyshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Derbyshire we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained right away. And most certainly take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to different types 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.

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.
