It was about 8 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were relaxing there going over the recent golf results, waiting for the next call to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Shalford and filled petrol in a diesel partner's BMW 6 Series lease car. She was somewhat distressed apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to get the car into a secure space and, seeing as it was just a short distance off from us, we could get to the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. A fuel drain in Essex well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Essex we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not knowing the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And of course be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Saturday and we were en route to assist an elder lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel old Mazda B2500 in Shalford. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station and was stranded along a country lane on route to visit her godchildren. I popped her location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said to me, "Now I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd only just purchased it several days back right after my old car, which I'd used for over twenty years, finally died". I got the drain completed and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Essex woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Shalford - Wrong Fuel in Car Shalford

I'd had a wonderful day golfing during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I was on the way to help a new family who were away in Shalford. They stopped after putting petrol into their baby blue Jaguar S-Type, and they were about half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the woman berating her spouse for being so confused. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this goes on frequently in Essex and that it's in reality nothing to worry about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I would personally never ever live it down!

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.
