It was before 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the recent tennis rankings, ready for the seventh call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Walkmills and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel blue Isuzu Ascender rental car by mistake. She was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly often happen. She managed to get the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could return to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. A fuel drain in Shropshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle all types 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.
