A gentleman conked out on a street in Rickford had to have a fuel drain around a month ago. His mustard yellow Mercedes SLK55 AMG was broken down roadside after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was calm when he phoned us but a bit worried to move his car from the road as he was generating some traffic. We arrived in fifteen minutes since our drainer was in neighbouring Rickford and had just concluded a fuel drain. He said, "I don't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and broke down right here! My vehicle was so spluttery I just were forced to pull over and then it just cut out."

Pretty much all you need to do at this moment is phone us so we can come out and sort your vehicle out. As to why us? Smart question. Our business is SPA licensed, and offers national cover for any person who has inadvertently misfueled.
AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Somerset we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the car.
Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?
Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most certainly do not start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Contact us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Tales from our own Rickford personnel:
Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Rickford
Now I am certainly not that keen on carrying out work on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had just come away from the wife and kids filled with a wonderful Sunday roast cooked for us by the wife, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow after he filled the wrong fuel in his modified Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG. He was situated in Rickford and so I arrived there very quickly. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my thoughts on other considerations and did not perceive I have put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought on any damage by simply running it?" I said truth be told there shouldn't be damage and also I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained right away for him. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and another happy client could continue their traveling with no fuss. The guy did not stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Somerset that little better to me!

It was absolutely no challenge in any way for our technical engineer to go and do the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their holiday break.

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.
