James and I were resting going over the recent footy rankings, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Poles Hole and put the wrong fuel in a diesel luxury Jaguar X-Type hire car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from the office, we could find her almost instantly.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Wiltshire we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not understanding how to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the car you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

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.

• 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.
