It was around six pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were resting there discussing the footy results, waiting around for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Scholar Green and filled petrol in a diesel Ferarri red Volvo S70 rental in error. She was somewhat troubled apparently, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure position and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from the office, we could find the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off contented and not so anxious. Another misfuel correction in Cheshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Scholar Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to fix the usual issues that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do if you have put AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Give us a call if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in ST7 Postcode - Scholar Green Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Tuesday and I was en route to assist an elder sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel bright red Nissan in Scholar Green. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was broken down in a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got her location punched into the TomTom and got there within an hour. I arrived at the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she said, "I have been becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I had just bought it a few days back when my other car, which I had for in excess of twenty years, eventually broke down". I got the drain done and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a delightful Cheshire lady!

We take care of your automobile through our full licencing and insurance protection. With around 150 years of joint wrong fuel drain know-how we know the correct way to get the task finished - no worry.

Wrong Fuel Assist Scholar Green - Wrong Fuel in Car Scholar Green

I'd had a fantastic day golfing on my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the following day as I set out to assist a young couple on vacation in Scholar Green. They broken down after inserting diesel into their maroon Toyota FJ Cruiser, and the car was about an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and smiled as I listened to the girl telling her partner off for being so stupid. "How could you conceivably find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this takes place continuously in Cheshire and that it is nothing to stress about, but he all the same had an ear bashing by his better half. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Regardless of whether you're driving a brand spanking new vehicle or an outdated type, we have the tools along with practical knowledge to fix the issue right there. We get rid of all the incorrect fuel, handle any problems created as a result of the misfueling, and get you running.

We a few weeks ago got a phone call about a driver who had put the wrong fuel in his red Fiat Bravo in Scholar Green. He had broken down on the road. "After putting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't notice the quandary until it conked out. You took the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning again. I was pleased due to both your call-out time and your pricing". Obviously we appeared rapidly and purged the engine after flushing the petrol from the diesel tank.

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.
