It was after 5 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were resting there talking over the weekend's sports results, waiting around for the 8th job that day to arrive. In due time we had a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Warstone and filled petrol in her diesel grass green Suzuki Kizashi hire car in error. The poor thing was fairly affected by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe position and, since it was only a short distance away from our van, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was staying in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home contented and less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Staffordshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Staffordshire we have discovered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And certainly take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Give us a call if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue 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.
