It was after 10 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were relaxing there talking about the recent rugby, waiting for the seventh fuel drain to arrive. In due time we received the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Snead Common and filled petrol in a diesel apricot Mercedes Sprinter lease car. The poor lady was very distressed it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from us, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Worcestershire we have encountered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely don't start the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

This was certainly what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to sunrise and noone was about. It had been quite uneventful thus far, and Mark and I were relaxing perusing several old papers. It was a rare quiet time in Worcestershire. Actually it was so calm that when the phone ultimately rang I leaped! The person on the opposite end said: "I just completed my overnight shift and incredibly poured petrol in the friend's BMW 745". I got him to let us know exactly where he was located and we set off, arriving in Snead Common half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for showing up so promptly. As we were coming back to the depot we noticed two ladies on the side of the road who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
