It was around 10 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing discussing the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Dunsden Green and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel racing green BMW Z8 lease car in error. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was just a short distance off from our van, we could find the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off contented and a lot less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Oxfordshire we have encountered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And most certainly do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking place. In cases where you have started the car you will very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Should you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the specialised competence 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.

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.
