It was before ten pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and me were relaxing discussing the weekend's golf, prepared for the seventh call that day to come in. In due time we had the call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Crickheath and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel apricot Honda Ridgeline rental in error. She was pretty agitated it seemed, crying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things do happen. She was able to get the car into a safe area and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from our van, we could reach the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home calm and much less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Shropshire done well in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Shropshire we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely take care not to start the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

If you end up in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SY10 Postcode - Crickheath Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Sunday and I was off to help an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel green Kia Rio5 in Crickheath. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a country road along the way to see her grandchildren. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I got to the car and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel since I had just acquired it a couple of days back because my old car, which I had used for more than thirty years, finally stopped working". I got the job completed and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Shropshire 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.
