It was around 5 pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing going over the recent sports results, at the ready for the 6th call of the day to come in. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Wereham and filled petrol in her diesel baby blue Hyundai HED-5 rental car. She was fairly agitated it seemed, crying "I just can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we could reach the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Norfolk well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel
All around Norfolk we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists not understanding how to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.
Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?
Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And certainly don't crank the engine - not even to shift it into a parking spot. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
