It was just after eight pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Dan and me were seated discussing the weekend's football rankings, ready for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Great Offley and put the wrong fuel in her diesel rugged Audi S8 hire car in error. She was fairly troubled it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this sadly do happen.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in case you’ve put AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Tuesday and I was on the way to help an older sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel work's Land Rover Discovery in Great Offley. I'd been told she had left the filling station and was pulled up on a rural road en route to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and got there inside 60 minutes. I reached the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing it she said to me, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel since I'd only acquired it a couple of days ago after my former car, which I had used for about twenty years, eventually died on me". I completed the drain and she offered me a peppermint and said thank you. What a pleasant Hertfordshire lady!

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.
