It was about 5 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing going over the tennis, waiting for the seventh fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we got the call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Aston-By-Stone and filled petrol in her diesel work's Mazda RX-8 rental car. She was quite agitated apparently, crying "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things sadly can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could get to the lady right away. The wrong fuel was drained and she could go home to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and less worried. One more fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Staffordshire we have found progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most certainly take care not to start the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Wrong Fuel Assist Aston-By-Stone - Wrong Fuel in Car Aston-By-Stone

I enjoyed a terrific day fishing during the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the next day as I set out to assist a new family who were on holiday in Aston-By-Stone. They'd stopped after inserting petrol into their maroon Mercedes Sprinter 3500, and they were around half an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife berating her man for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing takes place constantly in Staffordshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, and yet he all the same had an earful. Poor boy. In any case, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved farewell and pondered on what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the same error... I would under no circumstances live it down!

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.
