It was close to 9 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased raining! Dan and I were resting there talking over the tennis results, ready for the 6th job to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Wishanger and filled petrol in her diesel elegant Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class rental. She was rather distressed apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a safe position and, since it was just a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and not so concerned. Yet another job in Gloucestershire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Gloucestershire we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it asap. And of course don't crank the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

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.
