It was around eight pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's footy rankings, waiting for the next job that day to come in. Finally we received the call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Lower Green and filled petrol in her diesel boss' Vauxhall rental. The unfortunate thing was quite affected it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I've messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly happen. She managed to get the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from the office, we were able to reach the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off relaxed and less concerned. A fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Staffordshire we have identified more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly do not turn over the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in WV9 Postcode - Lower Green Misfueling

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and we were en route to help an old sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel mom's Bugatti Veyron in Lower Green. I had been told she drove away from the petrol station and broken down on a country road on the way to see her grandchildren. I got the location punched in the Satnav and was with her within an hour or so. I arrived at the location and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel because I had just bought it a short while ago because my previous one, which I owned for over twenty five years, eventually died". I finished the job and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a pleasant Staffordshire lady!

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.

Ordinary Misfueling Symptoms:

Following is a list of typical wrong fuel signs and symptoms:

  • Diminished vehicle power
