It was after 6 pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing commenting on the weekend's rugby results, ready for the sixth telephone call for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Three Bridges and filled petrol in a diesel expensive Kia Optima rental by mistake. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from the office, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. A job in West Sussex done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around West Sussex we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And of course do not start up the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. If you have started the car you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

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.
