It was before 10 pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were sitting there discussing the rugby rankings, ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we had a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Chilson Common and put petrol in a diesel sunflower yellow Peugeot 505 lease car by mistake. She was quite agitated it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly do happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was only a few minutes away from us, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off contented and not so stressed. A job in Somerset done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Somerset we are finding an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And obviously be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

What a great night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a warm Wednesday and we were off to help an older lady who had put petrol in her diesel light green Renault Master in Chilson Common. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a rural lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I reached the destination and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was working she told me, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel since I'd only just bought it a few days back because my former car, which I'd owned for more than 30 years, finally stopped working". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a precious Somerset woman!

A motorist had conked out just near a road in Chilson Common. His baby blue VW GLI car had stopped operating and he had no idea what was awry right up until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had got zero sleep the night before and that must have been the reason why.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Chilson Common

Now I'm not necessarily too excited about running on weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd just come away from home after a wonderful lunch cooked for us by the missus, and I was on the way to help a guy after he had filled the wrong fuel in his khaki green MINI Cooper. He was located in Chilson Common thus it wouldn't be long before I got to him. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the car and started work he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my concentration on something else and did not realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused problems by starting it?" I revealed generally there probably should not be any harm and also I'd remove the wrong fuel at once for him. Naturally I drained the fuel from the car and filled it with the suitable fuel, and so one more happy client could continue their journey without hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make working on Sundays in Somerset just a small bit easier in my opinion!

It truly was the night shift. It was close to sunrise and nobody was about. It had been pretty dead thus far, and Paul and I were relaxing browsing several old articles. This was an unusual tranquil hour in Somerset. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that the instant my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The motorist on the opposite end told me: "I just completed my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my diesel expensive Volvo XC60 by mistake". I asked him to let us know exactly where he was situated and we left, ending up in Chilson Common under half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for arriving so fast. While we were coming back home we spotted two girls on the side of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, to their elation.

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.
