It was just after eight pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! James and me were relaxing commenting on the weekend's sports rankings, waiting for the next job that day to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Thrupp and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel clean white Honda CR-Z rental in error. She was pretty distressed it seemed, crying "I just can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected area and, because it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we could reach the woman right away.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you’ve poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid composed of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Contact us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in GL5 Postcode - Thrupp Misfueling

What a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Saturday and I was off to help an old lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel pristine Seat Arosa in Thrupp. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I reached the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she explained, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel as I had only just got it several days ago when my former one, which I had for in excess of twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the drain and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Gloucestershire woman!

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.
