It was around eight pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Dan and I were sitting there going over the recent footy, at the ready for the 8th job to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Moretonwood and put the wrong fuel in her diesel black Citron C4 lease car in error. The poor lady was fairly agitated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, as it was just a few miles away from the office, we could find the customer without delay. The bad fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off calm and less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Shropshire we have seen progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists being unsure of the way to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously do not start up the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of different types 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.
