It was about 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and me were sitting discussing the recent sports, at the ready for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Slough Green and put petrol in her diesel white Mercedes CL-Class rental by mistake. The poor lady was pretty distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe space and, since it was just a short distance away from our van, we were able to get to the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off satisfied and not so worried. Another fuel drain in West Sussex done well in my books!

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around West Sussex we have seen an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not understanding the way to work with it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely don't crank the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

If you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised competence and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

I'd only just left the family after a wonderful lunch made by the wife, and I was on the way to deal with a gentleman who had put the incorrect fuel in his light green Lexus RX. He was situated in Slough Green thus it wouldn't be long before I arrived with him. As I arrived at the car and got out he told me "Praise God! I stupidly had my thoughts on stuff and didn't grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I inflicted some harm as a result of running it?" I explained generally there probably should not be harm and also that I would get the contaminated fuel drained right away. Naturally I drained the fuel from the car and filled it with the suitable fuel, and thus another pleased customer was able to continue on their trip without the fuss. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and this helps make carrying out work on Sundays in West Sussex a little better for me personally!

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.
