It was close to five pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were seated commenting on the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the seventh job of the day to come in. Before long we received a call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Brize Norton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel customised Mercedes M-Class hire car by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat troubled apparently, telling me "I can not believe I have messed up the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure area and, as it was only a few minutes off from our van, we were able to find her almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Oxfordshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Oxfordshire we have identified increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it right away. And of course be careful not to crank the motor - not even to move it to a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered 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.
