It was around ten pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and me were sitting there going over the rugby, prepared for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Necton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel shiny BMW 550 hire car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to move the car into a safe space and, as it was just a few miles from where we were, we were able to reach her without delay. The bad fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and much less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Norfolk we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And of course take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

If you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical skills and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

What a quality night of sleep! 7:00 am on a gloomy Tuesday and I was on the way to help an old lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel Ferarri red Peugeot 405 in Necton. I had been informed she had driven away from the petrol station and pulled up in a country lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I turned up at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the 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.

• 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.
