It was before five pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were resting discussing the rugby, at the ready for the sixth job to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Little London and put the wrong fuel in a diesel super Chrysler PT Cruiser lease car by mistake. She was very troubled apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, also that these things sadly do happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could reach the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could return to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away calm and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Oxfordshire well done in my opinion!

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Oxfordshire we are identifying a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly never turn over the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle different types of AdBlue fluid 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.
