It was after 9 pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not ceased raining! James and me were relaxing there talking over the weekend's footy results, at the ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Goverton and put petrol in a diesel dark green Mercedes-Benz R-Class lease car in error. She was pretty affected apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected space and, because it was only a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Nottinghamshire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in case you have put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution composed of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be harmful to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in your tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Give us a call if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily take care of all types of AdBlue 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.
