It was about 9 pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were sitting talking about the recent rugby, ready for the seventh call of the day to come in. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in West Torrington and put the wrong fuel in her diesel friend's Peugeot Bipper rental by mistake. The poor thing was quite irritated apparently, saying "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably can happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a safe spot and, since it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to reach the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away relaxed and much less concerned. Another job in Lincolnshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Lincolnshire we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to to make use of (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

If you get in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have the technical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in LN8 Postcode - West Torrington Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on the way to assist an older woman after she had put petrol in her diesel racing green BMW M3 in West Torrington. She told us that she had left the petrol station and was pulled up on a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I turned up at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "I am becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had just acquired it several days ago because my former one, which I had had for about 25 years, finally died on me". I finished the job and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant Lincolnshire 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.
