It was just before eight pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and I were sitting there commenting on the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the next fuel drain to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Badsey and put petrol in a diesel expensive Cadillac Escalade ESV lease car. She was pretty affected it seemed, stating "I still can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from us, we were able to reach the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could return to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Worcestershire we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not understanding the right way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most certainly do not crank the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you may likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car in WR11 Postcode - Badsey Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Sunday and I was on my way to help an older woman who put petrol in her diesel light green BMW 1 Series in Badsey. I had been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a backwater road along the way to see her godchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd just bought it a few days ago when my old one, which I'd used for more than 30 years, finally broke down". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Worcestershire woman!

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.
