It was about five pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were resting there talking about the tennis, prepared for the seventh call of the day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Tansor and put petrol in her diesel metallic yellow Peugeot 107 hire car. The unfortunate thing was very affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely forgot I was running a diesel!"

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Northamptonshire we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not knowing how to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

If you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

A customer had conked out on a street, Tansor just after having wrong fueled. She was crying and fairly distressed as she had put £45 of petrol in her diesel car. As she called us we attempted to cool her as well as we could, reassuring her that it would be okay.

It truly was the graveyard shift. It was around 3am and noone was around. It had become quite quiet up to now, and Ryan and I were loafing around reading through some old newspapers. That was a rare restful moment in Northamptonshire. It was so calm that when my mobile finally rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the other end told me: "I've only just finished my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in my diesel green Audi A8". We instructed him to inform us where exactly he was and we hit the road, ending up in Tansor less than 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the motor. He said thanks for coming so promptly. While we were going back home we spotted two girls on the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
