It was close to eight pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated going over the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the 6th telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we received the call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in New Town and put the wrong fuel in her diesel sky blue Volkswagen Touareg rental. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this do happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure spot and, seeing as it was just a few miles from the office, we could get to the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could return to the hotel she was residing in. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and less apprehensive. Another job in Lancashire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

In Lancashire we are discovering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not understanding the way to use it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

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

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to start up the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

In the event that you get in this position don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the technical knowledge and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
