Ok, we are the company to help you!

It was about 9 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing talking over the golf, prepared for the 6th job that day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Hallwood Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel blue Mercedes-Benz CL-Class lease car. The poor lady was quite affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was no more than a few miles away from us, we could find her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in the event that you may have poured AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, leading to devastating and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of different types of AdBlue liquid 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

    • 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.

  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.
