It was about ten pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were resting there talking about the footy results, waiting around for the seventh call of the day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Bracon Ash and put petrol in her diesel mustard yellow Fiat Punto hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected space and, because it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and much less concerned. One more fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Norfolk we have encountered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the car.

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

As the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And certainly never turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Call us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Bracon Ash

I'm not ever overly excited about carrying out work on weekends, and the other day was no different. I had only just left the wife and kids following a superb roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was off to help a man who had put the wrong fuel in his pristine Nissan Maxima. He was somewhere in Bracon Ash thus I arrived there rapidly. As I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on other things and didn't perceive I've put diesel in my petrol car. Have I brought on some harm through running it?" I revealed that truth be told there should not be any harm and also that I would personally remove the wrong fuel quickly for him. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and so another satisfied motorist could carry on with his traveling without difficulty. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is exactly what makes carrying out work on Sundays in Norfolk just a small bit less painful for me personally!

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.
