It was just after five pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were seated there discussing the weekend's sports, ready for the next fuel drain to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Wilstead and put petrol in a diesel pristine Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG rental car. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to get the car into a secure space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and not so concerned. A job in Bedfordshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Bedfordshire we are finding more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the car.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And obviously take care not to crank the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

In case you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the technical know-how and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or 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.
