It was before 8 pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and me were seated talking over the tennis, ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Hope Bagot and put the wrong fuel in a diesel bright white Lexus LX rental in error. The poor lady was very distressed apparently, telling me "I can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, as it was no more than a few minutes from us, we could reach the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living at.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Shropshire we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not knowing how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And most certainly don't start up the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

If perhaps you end up in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SY8 Postcode - Hope Bagot Misfueling

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a sunny Saturday and we were on my way to assist an old lady after she had put petrol in her diesel cream Audi in Hope Bagot. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was stranded on a country road on the way to visit her family. I punched her location into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour or so. I got to the location and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing it she said, "Now I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd just purchased it several days ago right after my former car, which I owned for in excess of thirty years, finally broke down". I finished the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. Such a delightful Shropshire woman!

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.

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.
