It was around five pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were resting going over the weekend's golf results, prepared for the 8th call for the day to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Kings Lynn and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel shiny Honda Civic Si hire car. The poor thing was pretty distressed it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately happen.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Norfolk we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people not knowing the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

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.
