It was just after five pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! James and I were relaxing going over the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the next job of the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Yardley Gobion and put the wrong fuel in her diesel mustard yellow Fiat Panda rental car by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly do happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Northamptonshire we are discovering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not knowing the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely take care not to start the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Should you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road 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:

    • 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.
