It was just after 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated discussing the sports, prepared for the next job of the day to come in. Before long we had the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Sunderland and put petrol in a diesel deep grey BMW 6 Series hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was no more than a few miles off from the office, we were able to arrive at her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and a lot less concerned. One more job in Lancashire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination
How to handle it in the event that you’ve put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?
AdBlue is a solution that is made from a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with AdBlue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.
Phone us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Sunderland - Fuel Rescue Sunderland
A customer from Sunderland with a full car of children in her diesel mint green Range Rover Classic had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the Sainsburys petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never wrong fueled and didn't know what might happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that everything would be ok and that she would be ready to go quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children in the back."

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
