It was around 8 pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and me were seated there going over the recent footy results, waiting around for the seventh job to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in East Firsby and put petrol in her diesel company's Toyota Prius hire car by mistake. She was rather affected it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to reach her without delay. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and not so concerned. Another job in Lincolnshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it if you have poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct all kinds of AdBlue 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 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.
