It was about five pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not ceased raining! James and I were relaxing there talking over the recent golf results, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Felmingham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel light blue Subaru Legacy lease car in error. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles from our van, we could find the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Norfolk we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of people not being aware of how to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the vehicle.

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

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most definitely do not start the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

In case you end up in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the practical skills and experience to get you back on your way quickly 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.
