It was just before six pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! James and I were resting talking over the recent golf rankings, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Hambledon and put the wrong fuel in her diesel new-shape Mitsubishi Endeavor hire car. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few minutes off from the office, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to return to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. One more job in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hampshire we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not understanding the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Contact us if you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle 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 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.
