It was after 6 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting discussing the recent golf, at the ready for the next call that day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Cadley and put petrol in her diesel brand new Renault Traffic rental car in error. She was quite distressed apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a secure space and, as it was only a short distance from us, we could find the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off contented and a lot less anxious. One more fuel drain in Wiltshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Wiltshire we are discovering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And absolutely don't start the car - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

A lady had broken down on a road, Cadley having just put petrol in her diesel car. She was crying and fairly troubled as she had put £60 of petrol in her diesel car.

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.
