It was just after 6 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry evening, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent football results, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Channels End and put the wrong fuel in her diesel luxury Audi Q7 hire car. She was fairly distressed it seemed, stating "I cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things can happen. She managed to move the car into a protected position and, because it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could reach the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away calm and not so concerned.

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Channels End (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Bedfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They will handle any of the standard troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Bedfordshire we are discovering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And absolutely never switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
