It was about ten pm on a Monday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and me were relaxing discussing the football rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Glasshouse and put the wrong fuel in a diesel elegant Vauxhall Astra hire car by mistake. She was pretty troubled apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things can happen. She was able to get the car to a protected space and, seeing that it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. Another job in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously do not switch on the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Give us a call in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

This really was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become fairly dead up to now, and me and Paul were loafing around looking through several old newspapers. This was a rare tranquil hour in Gloucestershire. It was indeed that relaxing that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The voice on the phone said: "I have just ended my evening shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in my daughter's BMW Z4". We instructed him to inform us where exactly he was located and we set off, getting to him in Glasshouse half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the vehicle. He said thanks for arriving so fast. As we were heading back home we noticed two girls at the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat.

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.
