It was after 8 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were resting discussing the weekend's sports rankings, at the ready for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Watton and filled petrol in a diesel classic BMW 7 Series rental. She was rather distressed it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home satisfied and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Dorset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Dorset we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not knowing how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not turn over the car - not even to shift it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

In the event that you get in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our experts have the technical know-how and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly 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 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.
