It was around five pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting there discussing the recent golf, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain that day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Little Walton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel partner's Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG rental in error. The poor thing was pretty troubled apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that things like this do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was only a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Warwickshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!

We're able to get out to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your car. They will handle any of the usual troubles that may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

In Warwickshire we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

A man had stopped just near a street in Little Walton. His wife's Volvo850 car had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was faulty until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I didn't know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got absolutely no rest the day before and that must have been why.

This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 3am and almost noone was stirring. It had become quite dead thus far, and me and Ray were relaxing reading a few old magazines. This was a rare peaceful moment in Warwickshire. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that when the telephone finally rang it made me jump! The voice on the phone explained: "I've just concluded my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in the canary yellow Renault Laguna by mistake". We instructed him to let us know where exactly he was and we set off, getting to him in Little Walton less than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the engine and he said thanks for coming out so fast. While we were coming back to base we noticed two young ladies at the edge of the road who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.

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.
