It was just after five pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! James and I were seated talking about the golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Shrewsbury and put petrol in her diesel bright red BMW lease car by mistake. She was rather irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we could find the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could return to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off calm and less stressed. One more job in Shropshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue is certainly damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue will be injected into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, triggering disastrous and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

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.
