It was around 10 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were resting talking over the recent footy results, prepared for the sixth telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Park Hill and filled petrol in a diesel burgundy red Hyundai Equus rental by mistake. She was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things do happen. She had managed to get the car into a secure spot and, since it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could find the lady quickly.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Gloucestershire we have discovered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people not knowing how to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And definitely be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around dawn and noone was about. It had become pretty dead so far, and Ray and I were loafing browsing several old magazines. It was an unusual quiet moment in Gloucestershire. It was indeed so peaceful that when the phone inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The person explained: "I have only just finished my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in my classic Cadillac Escalade by mistake". We got him to tell us just where the vehicle was situated and we headed out, reaching him in Park Hill no more than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the motor. He thanked us profusely for showing up so quickly. As we were heading back home we noticed two young ladies at the edge of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we stopped and helped them change it, to their elation.

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.
