It was about six pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were seated talking over the tennis, prepared for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Bexleyheath and put the wrong fuel in a diesel modern Dodge Colt hire car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat distressed apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe position and, since it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could get to the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could return to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and not so stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Bexley done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Bexley we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not understanding how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And most certainly don't start up the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. If you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this situation don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the technical expertise and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

I enjoyed a great afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I set off to aid a new family who were on holiday in Bexleyheath. They pulled over after filling diesel into their light green Citron Picasso, and were about an hour away. I turned up at their car and smirked as I listened to the lady chastising her man for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place on a regular basis in Bexley and that it's really nothing at all to stress about, nonetheless he all the same got an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I drained all of the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel.

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.
