It was just before 8 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were resting there talking over the weekend's tennis rankings, ready for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Ayot St Peter and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel grey Mazda B2500 hire car by mistake. The poor thing was quite affected apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, and also that such things happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe spot and, as it was just a short distance off from us, we could reach the woman right away.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Hertfordshire we have found a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

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.
