It was just after six pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated going over the weekend's golf results, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Halls Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel dark blue Toyota MR2 rental car by mistake. She was rather affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, since it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to get to her quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and a lot less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Hertfordshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hertfordshire we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And absolutely never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Give us a call in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
