It was just before seven pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and me were sitting going over the weekend's golf, at the ready for the 6th job that day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Ketford and filled petrol in a diesel burgundy red Isuzu Impulse rental car. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a secure spot and, since it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we could find the customer quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could return to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off contented and less worried.

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do if you may have put AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with AdBlue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find yourself in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and noone was stirring. It had become pretty quiet until now, and me and Ray were sitting about perusing a few old papers. It was a rare calm moment in Gloucestershire. It was that calm that when my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The motorist stated: "I have just completed my night shift and foolishly put petrol in the diesel green Mazda MX-3 in error". We told him to let us know exactly where the vehicle was and we hit the road, ending up in Ketford an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the vehicle.

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.
