It was about ten pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Brian and I were relaxing there talking about the recent rugby rankings, at the ready for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Flimwell and filled petrol in her diesel stylish Porsche Cayman lease car. She was pretty agitated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, and that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and much less worried. One more fuel drain in East Sussex done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in the event that you may have put AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made out of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is definitely damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, bringing about devastating and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

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.
