It was just before 10 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were sitting there going over the weekend's footy rankings, waiting for the sixth telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Upper Langwith and put petrol in a diesel dark red Audi A3 lease car. The unfortunate thing was very troubled it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, since it was only a few miles off from us, we were able to get to her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and much less worried. Another job in Derbyshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Derbyshire we are discovering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And most definitely take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. If you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
