It was before six pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were seated commenting on the weekend's sports, at the ready for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Byker and filled petrol in her diesel cobalt blue BMW Z4 M rental car by mistake. The poor lady was quite agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, since it was just a short distance away from the office, we could reach her right away. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got very wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and not so worried. Yet another job in Tyne and Wear done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Tyne and Wear we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly don't start the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Call us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix every type of AdBlue 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.
