It was around seven pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting there commenting on the golf results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Finally we got a call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Holme Hale and put petrol in her diesel boss' Suzuki Samurai rental car. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled apparently, saying "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from our van, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could get back to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away calm and not so anxious. One more job in Norfolk well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we have identified increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And absolutely do not crank the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Whenever you end up in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
