It was around six pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were resting there discussing the recent tennis, at the ready for the next fuel drain to arrive. In due time we had the call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Ible and put the wrong fuel in her diesel compact Ford C-MAX Hybrid lease car by mistake. The poor thing was pretty affected it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things sadly can happen. She managed to move the car into a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The bad fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away calm and less worried. One more fuel drain in Derbyshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank lying in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and business premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Derbyshire we are encountering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.

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

Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

If you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the specialised skills and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Stories from our own Ible staff:

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Ible

Now I am not necessarily excessively interested in running on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had just departed the wife and kids after a superb lunch prepared for us by the missus, and I was on my way to sort out a man after he filled the wrong fuel in his blue Lexus IS. He was stationed in Ible so I was with him quickly. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my concentration on other things and did not grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on damage by running it?" I explained that there should not be harm and that also I'd personally get the fuel drained quickly. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled it with the correct fuel, and so one more content motorist had the ability to continue his journey with no fuss. He could not stop thanking me, and that makes working on Sundays in Derbyshire just that tiny bit better in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Ible - Fuel Rescue Ible

A woman working in Ible phoned us shortly after she managed to get her misfueled automobile to her office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel brother's BMW Z4 and, like many prior to her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill her tank with diesel and it'd run no problem. The engine was coughing and then it stopped when she reached the entrance of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed within an hour or so while she was in the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely happy you fixed 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.
