It was before 6 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were resting there talking about the recent sports, ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Old Bexley and put petrol in a diesel super Vauxhall Movano lease car. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things sadly can happen. She managed to move the car to a secure space and, since it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we were able to find the lady right away. The wrong fuel was drained so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and less anxious. Another job in Bexley done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Bexley we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly don't switch on the motor - not even to move it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Old Bexley - Wrong Fuel in Car Old Bexley

I enjoyed a great evening fishing during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the next morning as I headed out to help a new family who were holidaying in Old Bexley. They'd conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their sky blue Mercedes SLK55 AMG, and they were approximately half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and laughed to myself as I heard to the lady telling off her husband for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing takes place on daily basis in Bexley and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, however he in spite of everything had an earful by his better half. Unlucky lad. In any case, I removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I waved farewell and thought about what my wife would ask me if I made the very same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
