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


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank at the rear of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Berkshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Berkshire we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not understanding how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly don't crank the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

In case you get in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and I was off to help an older lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel metallic yellow Jaguar XK Series in Ashampstead Green. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a rural road on route to see her godchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was working she said, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel since I had only just purchased it a couple of days back after my old one, which I'd owned for about twenty five years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a pleasant Berkshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Ashampstead Green

Now I'm not actually too excited about doing work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just left home filled with a magnificent roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was off to deal with a gentleman who had put the incorrect fuel in his white Jeep Comanche. He was only in Ashampstead Green so it wasn't long before I reached him. As I pulled up behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I had my concentration on something else and failed to grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused some harm by simply starting it?" I stated that there shouldn't be any problems and that I'd remove the contaminated fuel right away. Needless to say I drained the fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and thus one more pleased customer could continue on his trip without any subsequent hassle. The man could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is what tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Berkshire just that small bit better in my opinion!

A lady working in Ashampstead Green contacted us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel daughter's Peugeot 2008 and, like plenty before her, assumed that she could basically fill up the car with diesel and it would run fine. The engine was spluttering and then it died when she came to the entrance of her work. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed inside an hour or so while she was at work. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm very delighted you repaired my car."

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.
