It was about 10 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not stopped pouring! Dan and I were resting there going over the weekend's rugby rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Marle Hill and filled petrol in her diesel white Mercedes SLK-Class rental. She was pretty irritated apparently, telling me "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and much less stressed. A fuel drain in Gloucestershire well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Gloucestershire we are finding an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly due to motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it asap. And certainly don't turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

In the event that you get in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the technical know-how and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or 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.
