It was before six pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were sitting discussing the weekend's football, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Bildershaw and put petrol in a diesel metallic silver Jaguar XK Series rental by mistake. The poor thing was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from where we were, we were able to reach the lady right away.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in case you’ve put AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid composed of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is certainly disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with AdBlue in your fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DL2 Postcode - Bildershaw Misfueling

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and I was off to help an old lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel silver BMW 745 in Bildershaw. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a backwater road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour. I reached the destination and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel since I'd just purchased it a couple of days ago because my other car, which I owned for more than twenty years, inevitably died on me". I finished the drain and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a precious County Durham woman!

This was most definitely the night shift. It was close to sunrise and nobody was about. It had become pretty dead until now, and Paul and I were sitting around looking through a few old magazines. That was a rare calm time in County Durham. Actually it was that quiet that the moment the telephone ultimately rang I jumped! The motorist on the opposite end told me: "I've only just completed my night shift and foolishly filled petrol in a yellow Mazda MX-3 by mistake". We told him to inform us exactly where he was located and we headed out, arriving in Bildershaw 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the car. He said thank you for coming out so promptly. As we were returning to base we found two young women on the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to help them 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 VA 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.
