It was just before five pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were relaxing going over the recent sports, waiting around for the 6th job that day to come in. Finally we had the call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Barham and put petrol in a diesel dark blue Toyota MR2 lease car in error. The poor thing was rather distressed it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, because it was only a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home satisfied and not so worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Suffolk done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in the event that you’ve put AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made out of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in IP6 Postcode - Barham Misfueling

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Wednesday and we were en route to help an old sweetheart who put contaminated fuel in her diesel clean white Ford Fusion in Barham. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I punched the location straight into the TomTom and got there within an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing it she said to me, "I have been getting quite forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel because I'd just acquired it several days ago because my old car, which I'd owned for more than 30 years, eventually broke down". I completed the drain and she gave me a toffee and said thanks. Such a pleasant Suffolk lady!

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.
