It was about seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were resting discussing the recent sports results, waiting around for the seventh job that day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Catsfield Stream and put petrol in a diesel classic Renault Laguna rental. The unfortunate thing was rather affected apparently, stating "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we could get to her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got really wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. A misfuel correction in East Sussex well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout East Sussex we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.

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

Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And certainly do not start the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you have started the car you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

In the event that you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the practical skills and working experience to have you back on the road 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 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.
