It was close to seven pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were resting there discussing the golf rankings, prepared for the 6th call to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Redgrave and put petrol in her diesel metallic grey Lexus hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!"

AdBlue Contamination

In Suffolk we are discovering progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the vehicle.

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

Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And definitely don't crank the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Call us in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of 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.
