It was about 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and I were resting discussing the football rankings, ready for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Chapel End and put the wrong fuel in a diesel daughter's Renault Laguna hire car. The poor lady was pretty affected apparently, saying "I cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance from the office, we were able to find her without delay. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. A job in Northamptonshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Northamptonshire we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by people being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As the product is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it immediately. And certainly never start the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Any time you end up in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in PE8 Postcode - Chapel End Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Tuesday and we were on my way to help an older woman after she put petrol in her diesel wife's Citron DS4 in Chapel End. I'd been informed she had left the filling station and pulled up on a country lane along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped her location into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I got to the destination and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel as I'd only purchased it several days ago because my old one, which I had for over 25 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Northamptonshire lady!

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 VAT 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.
