It was close to seven pm on a Friday and while we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and me were relaxing commenting on the tennis rankings, waiting around for the seventh call to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Snape and filled petrol in her diesel mint condition BMW 600 rental car. The poor thing was rather troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this often happen.

AdBlue Contamination

In North Yorkshire we are finding progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously never start up the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Should you find yourself in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical know-how and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or 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.
