It was close to seven pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated commenting on the recent rugby, waiting for the seventh call that day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Madehurst and put the wrong fuel in a diesel super Volkswagen Golf rental. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we were able to find the lady without delay.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!

We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will handle any of the typical problems that may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over West Sussex we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it asap. And certainly do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Should you find yourself in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the specialised skills and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

They had pulled over after filling diesel into their dark red Audi RS4, and they were about an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smirked as I heard to the girl berating her hubby for actually being so silly.
