It was before 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were seated there commenting on the recent football rankings, waiting for the next telephone call that day to come in. In due time we got the call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Hertford Heath and put petrol in her diesel rugged BMW 550 lease car by mistake. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to move the car to a secure area and, because it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to reach the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and much less apprehensive. One more job in Hertfordshire done well in my books!

We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hertfordshire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely be careful not to start the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you will most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

If you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the practical skills and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
