It was just before 6 pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and me were sitting commenting on the recent golf results, ready for the 6th telephone call that day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Lullington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel dark green Isuzu Amigo rental car. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to worry, also that such things regrettably happen. She was able to get the car into a safe area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could find the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive away satisfied and less stressed. Yet another job in Derbyshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you’ve put AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made from a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in your tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pulled into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct all types of AdBlue 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.
