It was before 5 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were resting going over the footy results, waiting around for the 6th telephone call to arrive. In due time we got a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Long Green and put petrol in her diesel yellow BMW Z4 M Roadster hire car in error. She was quite agitated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, also that these things sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe space and, as it was just a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to her without delay. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and not so anxious. One more misfuel correction in Worcestershire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed if you may have poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
