It was about 6 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the recent football results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Goulceby and put petrol in her diesel grey Bentley Continental hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly happen. She was able to get the car into a protected space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could reach the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and not so anxious. One more job in Lincolnshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Lincolnshire we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And definitely never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the event that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue 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.
