It was close to 7 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing talking over the tennis rankings, prepared for the 6th job that day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Shell filling station in Tunstead and put petrol in a diesel grass green Renault Laguna lease car in error. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, stating "I just can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected area and, as it was only a short distance from where we were, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and not so worried. A job in Greater Manchester well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Greater Manchester we are identifying a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the car.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And absolutely take care not to start the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will probably need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Call us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of different types 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 VA 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.
