It was around 6 pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting discussing the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth job for the day to arrive. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Huntley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel teal Toyota Land Cruiser lease car. The unfortunate lady was very distressed apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected space and, because it was just a few miles away from the office, we could get to the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at.

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not understanding the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of every type of AdBlue fluid 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
    • 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.
