It was after seven pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Dan and me were resting there talking over the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the seventh telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Tithebarn and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel spotless Peugeot 407 lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was quite affected by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things sadly happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from our van, we were able to find the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away relaxed and less worried. Yet another job in Staffordshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Staffordshire we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you would most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be 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 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.
