It was just after five pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and me were resting going over the golf, prepared for the 6th job of the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Widbrook and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel friend's Suzuki Sidekick rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was quite affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately often happen.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Wiltshire we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly don't turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can correct all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

I had a terrific afternoon hiking on my off day and felt pleased the next working day as I headed out to help a young family vacationing in Widbrook. They stopped after putting petrol in their creamy white Suzuki Samurai, and they were approximately an hour away. I got there at their location and smirked as I heard to the lady chastising her hubby for being so foolish. "Just how could you conceivably manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this goes on quite frequently in Wiltshire and that it's in reality nothing to stress about, and yet he all the same got his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
