It was before five pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were sitting there discussing the weekend's sports results, waiting for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Before long we got a call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station in Brockhall and put petrol in her diesel beloved VW Jetta III hire car by mistake. She was fairly affected it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure spot and, since it was only a few minutes away from our van, we were able to find the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home relaxed and much less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Northamptonshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Northamptonshire we have noticed a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely take care not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

In case you get in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical competence and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
