It was close to five pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a rainless day, it had not stopped raining! Dan and me were seated there talking about the rugby rankings, prepared for the next call that day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP filling station in Lintridge and put the wrong fuel in a diesel baby blue VW Jetta rental. The poor thing was quite agitated apparently, telling me "I can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to fret, also that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, since it was just a few miles away from us, we were able to find the lady quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Gloucestershire well done in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

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

As the product is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it right away. And most definitely be careful not to start the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Should you find yourself in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and experience to get you back on the road promptly 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.
