It was just before 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and me were seated going over the weekend's tennis, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we received a call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Barlow and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel brother's Volkswagen Eurovan lease car in error. She was quite troubled apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with 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 can happen. She had managed to move the car to a protected position and, since it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to get to the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and not so worried. Yet another job in Tyne and Wear well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Tyne and Wear we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at once. And most definitely don't start up the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NE21 Postcode - Barlow Misfueling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a gloomy Wednesday and we were on my way to help an older lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel mint green Isuzu i-370 in Barlow. I'd been informed she had driven away from the petrol station and stranded along a country lane along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "Now I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I'd just got it several days ago when my former one, which I had owned for more than thirty years, finally stopped working". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Tyne and Wear lady!

We completed a wrong fuel removal job on the drive of a beautiful residence in Barlow recently. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to more or less get home when my car quit." Our fuel drainer went out, despite the fact that it was fairly late at night, and did a standard fuel drain and cleanse on the brand new Austin Mini to everyone's satisfaction.

A man who had put the wrong fuel in his diesel grey Subaru Impreza WRX contacted us for a fuel drain at the Esso petrol station in Barlow. He decided to top up before continuing on to the local recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded as opposed to diesel which wasn't a great start to our getaway." It was definitely no trouble by any means for our engineer to go out and carry out the fuel drain. We hope they had a good holiday break.

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.
