It was just before eight pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there talking over the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Stonegate and filled petrol in her diesel dirty red Volkswagen Golf rental in error. The unfortunate lady was very irritated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to get to her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around East Sussex we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the vehicle.

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

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out right away. And definitely do not start the engine - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

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.
