It was around seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were sitting talking about the recent sports rankings, prepared for the sixth telephone call to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Taverham and put petrol in her diesel black Volvo XC90 rental car. She was very agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things sadly happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we could get to the lady right away. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Norfolk we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not knowing how to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

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.
