It was just before 6 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and me were relaxing there discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, prepared for the next telephone call to come in. Finally we received the call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Weston-on-the-Green and put petrol in a diesel apricot Mercedes-Benz M-Class rental. She was very irritated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we were able to arrive at her quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living in.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Oxfordshire we have discovered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not understanding the way to use it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And absolutely do not crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you would probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
