It was just after 8 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the 6th job that day to come in. In due time we had a call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Tilbury Juxta Clare and filled petrol in her diesel mom's Nissan Leaf lease car. The poor thing was rather troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to move the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from us, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off relaxed and much less concerned. Another job in Essex done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not understanding how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And absolutely never crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. If you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Give us a call if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

I'd had a great evening cycling during my off day and felt contented with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Tilbury Juxta Clare. They'd pulled over after inserting petrol in their metallic blue Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500, and they were around an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the wife telling her man off for being so confused. "How could you actually manage to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this occurs frequently in Essex and that it's really nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would tell me if I made the same blunder... I would personally never live it down!

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.
