It was before 8 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not ceased raining! Paul and I were resting going over the weekend's rugby rankings, ready for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Lower Thurnham and put petrol in her diesel modern Jeep Grand Cherokee lease car. She was rather affected apparently, saying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably often happen. She was able to get the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from us, we were able to arrive at her swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away satisfied and less worried. Another fuel drain in Lancashire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lancashire we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part due to drivers not understanding the way to use it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the car.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out right away. And absolutely take care not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Contact us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

We not too long ago got a call from a man who put the incorrect fuel in his partner's Toyota Yaris in Lower Thurnham. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the predicament up until it conked out. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and got it functioning . I was happy due to both how fast you were and your price". As you can imagine we were on-scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived the engineer said the driver was scowling, but was pleased after the fuel drain.

This really was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was close to 2:30am and noone was about. It had become quite dead so far, and Mark and I were sitting about perusing several old magazines. That was a rare peaceful moment in Lancashire. It was indeed that peaceful that the instant my mobile ultimately rang I leaped! The person said: "I've ended my overnight shift and foolishly filled petrol in the diesel bright white Mercedes-Benz C-Class by mistake". We asked him to let us know where exactly the car was situated and we headed out, ending up in Lower Thurnham no more than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the engine and he said thanks a lot for arriving so rapidly. While we were returning to the office we noticed two young ladies on the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat. As a result we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

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 VA 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.
