It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not given up on raining! Ray and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, waiting around for the 6th job for the day to come in. Finally we had a call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Clarendon Park and filled petrol in her diesel mate's BMW Z8 rental by mistake. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She had managed to get the car to a safe area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from our van, we were able to find the woman almost instantly.

We've been called out to numerous private and business premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can empty it.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Leicestershire we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely never turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct 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.
