It was around 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were sitting there talking over the sports rankings, waiting around for the next call to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Merton Park and filled petrol in her diesel mint condition BMW 745 rental car by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I've wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!"

AdBlue Contamination
All over Merton we are finding a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not knowing the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?
As the product is mostly ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course do not start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.
Call us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to 2:30am and noone was about. It was rather dead thus far, and me and Ryan were loafing looking through a number of old articles. That was an unusual quiet moment in Merton. It was indeed that calm that the instant the phone rang I jumped with surprise! The person explained: "I have ended my night shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel father's Audi Cabriolet". We instructed him to tell us just where he was situated and we set off, arriving in Merton Park only an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thank you for getting there so promptly. While we were heading back to the depot we spotted two girls at the edge of the road who appeared to have a puncture. As a result we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.

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.
