It was after seven pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Dan and me were sitting there talking about the rugby rankings, at the ready for the seventh job to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Gibbet Hill and put petrol in a diesel dark blue Volkswagen Scirocco lease car in error. She was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I still can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to move the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from us, we were able to get to the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Another job in Warwickshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Warwickshire we are noticing progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not understanding how to to make use of (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

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

Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to crank the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

In case you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the technical skills and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
