It was around 10 pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on raining! Brian and me were resting going over the tennis, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station in The Riding and put petrol in her diesel Ferarri red Mazda B2500 rental. The poor thing was somewhat troubled apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we could get to the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away relaxed and less worried. A fuel drain in Northumberland done well in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Northumberland we are identifying a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the automobile.

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

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid 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 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.
