Our engineer was called to a petrol station in Crimchard when a elderly lady misfueled her expensive Nissan Murano by putting unleaded in her diesel vehicle.

AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Somerset we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not being aware of the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?
Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to move it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you may very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Contact us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.
Wrong Fuel in Car in TA20 Postcode - Crimchard Misfueling
What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Wednesday and I was off to help an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel shiny Audi Allroad in Crimchard. She informed us that she had left the filling station and was pulled up on a rural road along the way to visit her family. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the work she explained, "I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel since I'd only acquired it a week back when my previous car, which I used for more than 30 years, eventually died". I finished the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Somerset lady!

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was about 2 in the morning and noone was around. It had become pretty dead up to now, and me and Paul were relaxing browsing a few old papers. It was an uncommon tranquil moment in Somerset. It was indeed that quiet that the moment the telephone finally rang I jumped! The voice on the phone explained: "I have just concluded my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel yellow Honda Accord". I instructed him to let us know just where the car was and we headed out, getting to him in Crimchard only an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the motor and he thanked us for arriving so quickly. While we were returning to the depot we noticed two girls on the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat. So we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
