It was about six pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were relaxing talking about the rugby results, waiting around for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Fillongley and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel deep grey Mazda B2500 lease car. She was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a few miles from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman fairly quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got very wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and less worried. A job in Warwickshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Warwickshire we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly never start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you end up in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the technical expertise and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

What a great night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Wednesday and I was off to assist an elder lovely lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel uncle's VW Jetta III in Fillongley. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down in a country road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped her location straight into the Satnav and got there in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle.

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.
