It was just after six pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and me were seated commenting on the recent football, waiting for the 6th job that day to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Coxlodge and put petrol in her diesel metallic green Renault Twingo hire car. The poor thing was rather agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the car into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from the office, we could find her without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away satisfied and not so apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Tyne and Wear well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Tyne and Wear we are encountering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely take care not to start the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix every type of AdBlue contamination.

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Tuesday and we were on the way to assist an elder lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel modified Chevrolet Corsica in Coxlodge. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station and was pulled up along a rural road on the way to see her family. I punched her location into the Satnav and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I reached the location and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing it she said, "I am getting rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel since I had only just purchased it a short while ago after my old car, which I had used for over thirty years, eventually stopped working". I finished the job and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Tyne and Wear 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 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.
