It was about 9 pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and me were relaxing there talking about the rugby results, waiting for the 6th call for the day to come in. In due time we got a call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Upper Astrop and filled petrol in a diesel beautiful Land Rover Defender 90 hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from us, we could reach the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and much less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Northamptonshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Northamptonshire we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not knowing how to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously don't start the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you will probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Give us a call in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
