It was around 10 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not ceased pouring! Brian and I were resting there going over the weekend's rugby rankings, ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Easington and filled petrol in her diesel rugged Peugeot 206 rental in error. The unfortunate lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and not so stressed. A fuel drain in Buckinghamshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Buckinghamshire we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And absolutely take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the practical knowledge and experience to get you back on the road swiftly 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.
