It was around 10 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's football rankings, at the ready for the next call of the day to come in. Before long we had a call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Thorpe Latimer and put the wrong fuel in her diesel metallic blue BMW X3 rental. The poor thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, also that such things sadly often happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was no more than a short distance from the office, we were able to reach the lady right away.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you have poured AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

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.
