It was just before ten pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting there going over the recent footy rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Herston and filled petrol in her diesel wife's Vauxhall Insignia rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was no more than a few miles off from the office, we could find the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away relaxed and a lot less concerned. A fuel drain in Dorset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in case you may have poured AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is composed of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about serious and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix all kinds 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 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.
