It was close to 10 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and me were sitting going over the recent footy, ready for the seventh telephone call to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Regil and put the wrong fuel in her diesel aunt's BMW 5 Series hire car by mistake. The poor thing was quite affected it seemed, stating "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure area and, since it was just a few minutes from our van, we could find her swiftly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got really wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and less concerned. One more job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not being aware of how to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And absolutely don't start up the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

In the event that you get in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the technical competence and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
