It was just before five pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing discussing the footy results, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Brockley and put petrol in a diesel new-shape Dodge Avenger hire car in error. The poor lady was quite irritated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could find the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away relaxed and a lot less concerned. Yet another job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you may have put AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is definitely harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, resulting in devastating and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will correct all kinds 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 VA 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.
