It was just before ten pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and me were seated there going over the recent footy, at the ready for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Finally we received the call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Bascote Heath and put the wrong fuel in a diesel pristine Audi Coupe GT lease car. The poor lady was rather troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could arrive at the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away satisfied and less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Warwickshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Warwickshire we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not being totally sure how to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly don't crank the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Give us a call if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

A young lady from Bascote Heath with a full car of children in her diesel sombre grey Land Rover Range Rover Classic had filled her car with £42 of petrol at the Tesco service station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and did not know what might happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that everything should be okay and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the little ones on board."

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.
