It was before 9 pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were seated talking about the recent sports results, ready for the 6th fuel drain to come in. Before long we got the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Brook End and put petrol in a diesel father's Jaguar XK Series hire car. She was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to get the car into a protected position and, as it was only a few miles off from the office, we were able to find the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home satisfied and less stressed. One more job in Wiltshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Wiltshire we have seen a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And certainly be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

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.
