It was close to eight pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Mark and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Eventually we received a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Shaffalong and filled petrol in her diesel spotless Land Rover Discovery Series II rental car. The poor thing was very irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to move the car to a secure position and, because it was only a few minutes off from us, we could reach the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home contented and much less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Staffordshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do if you have put AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid composed of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a gloomy Tuesday and we were off to help an old woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel new Audi S4 in Shaffalong. I'd been told she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a backwater lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I got to the car and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "I have been getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I had only just purchased it a couple of days back because my previous car, which I used for about 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a precious Staffordshire woman!

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 VAT 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.
