It was just before seven pm on a Monday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and me were relaxing commenting on the recent golf results, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Weston Favell and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel metallic silver Ford Club Wagon lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty agitated it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to be concerned, also that things like this regrettably often happen.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in case you have put AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made from a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pulled into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Just had a fantastic night of sleep! 7:00 on a warm Monday and I was en route to help an older lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel mom's Audi Coupe GT in Weston Favell. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and pulled up in a country lane on route to see her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I reached the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing the drain she explained, "Now I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I had only purchased it several days ago because my old one, which I'd had for more than 30 years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. What 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.
