It was about 6 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were relaxing there talking about the weekend's rugby results, waiting for the next call of the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Bretherton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel customised Mitsubishi Eclipse rental by mistake. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably happen. She had managed to move the car to a protected spot and, since it was just a few miles from us, we could reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to return to the motel she was lodging in.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lancashire we have found increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most certainly don't start the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Tuesday and I was on my way to help an elder lovely lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel dark blue Volkswagen Beetle in Bretherton. I had been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded on a rural lane along the way to see her godchildren. I popped the location into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was working she explained, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had just got it several days ago after my previous one, which I'd used for over twenty years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Lancashire woman!

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.
