Paul and I were resting commenting on the sports rankings, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Bignall End and put petrol in her diesel white Audi A6 hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was pretty agitated apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things sadly happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in case you’ve poured AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

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.
