It was before 8 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and me were sitting commenting on the weekend's sports, waiting for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Bar Hill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel dirty red Daewoo Leganza hire car in error. The poor lady was somewhat affected apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we could get to the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and much less worried. Another fuel drain in Cambridgeshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Cambridgeshire we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Contact us in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix 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.
