Finally we had the call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Witham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel uncle's Ford Club Wagon rental by mistake. She was fairly irritated it seemed, crying "I can not believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!"

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Essex we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not knowing the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And of course don't start up the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

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.
