It was before seven pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there discussing the weekend's football results, prepared for the sixth call of the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP filling station in Sutton Lane Ends and put the wrong fuel in a diesel classic Chevrolet Camaro rental by mistake. She was pretty troubled apparently, saying "I cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!"

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Cheshire we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to people not being aware of how to use it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the technical know-how and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

A fairly alarmed driver called us from the Texaco filling station at Cheshire to advise us that he had put unleaded in his diesel light blue Kia Rio; he wasn't entirely sure how he'd managed to do it. We advised him it was no situation and before long had our engineer out to him to clean the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having removed the contaminated fuel, he was soon enough back behind the wheel. He told us; "I am really dumbfounded I put petrol in my diesel car. And the guy who was sent to take care of the fuel drain was especially very good - he did not make me look like a fool."

I appreciated a great day hiking on my off day and felt satisfied the following morning as I set out to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Sutton Lane Ends. They broken down after adding diesel in their aunt's Skoda Octavia, and were roughly half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the wife telling her hubby off for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you even be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass regularly in Cheshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, but he yet still had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor guy. At any rate, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what my missus would tell me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!

We fairly recently had a phone call from a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his deep grey Peugeot Boxer in Sutton Lane Ends. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "I couldn't believe how quick you people were in having a fuel drainer out to help me after I erroneously filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thank you ever so much". Needless to say we showed up promptly and flushed the engine after flushing the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival our fuel drainer said the client was scowling, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.

This was exactly the night shift. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and nobody was around. It had become fairly dead thus far, and me and Brian were relaxing browsing a couple of old magazines. This was an uncommon tranquil hour in Cheshire. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the instant the phone eventually rang I jumped! The person on the opposite end explained: "I completed my night shift and foolishly put petrol in a mom's Volkswagen Beetle". I told him to let us know exactly where the car was situated and we left, reaching him in Sutton Lane Ends less than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thank you for showing up so fast. As we were coming back home we spotted two young ladies on the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. As a result we got out to change it, to their elation.

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.
