It was about ten pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were sitting there going over the recent football rankings, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Walton Elm and filled petrol in her diesel boss' Ford Transit rental car in error. The poor lady was rather affected by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, because it was no more than a short distance off from us, we were able to reach her quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and not so anxious. A job in Dorset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we have identified a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly don't crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Phone us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid 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.
