It was after ten pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were resting discussing the footy, prepared for the 8th fuel drain that day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Chelvey and filled petrol in her diesel mom's Peugeot 405 lease car in error. She was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to get to the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home satisfied and less concerned. A job in Somerset well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

In Somerset we have identified a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly take care not to crank the engine - not even to move it to a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix every type 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 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.
