It was just after five pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were sitting there going over the recent sports, at the ready for the sixth job that day to come in. Finally we got a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Bettiscombe and put petrol in her diesel apple green BMW 745 rental in error. The poor lady was pretty troubled it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was residing at. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away contented and much less stressed. A fuel drain in Dorset done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in case you may have poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that’s made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is certainly damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

"After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't discover the issue till the time it conked out. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and had it running again.

This was what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and nobody was about. It had been fairly uneventful until now, and me and Ryan were sitting browsing a number of old newspapers. It was an unusual quiet time in Dorset. It was in fact so calm that when the telephone inevitably rang I jumped! The voice on the other end told me: "I've concluded my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in a metallic blue BMW Z4 by mistake". I told him to inform us exactly where he was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Bettiscombe not as much as 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine and he thanked us for coming out so fast. While we were returning home we saw two young ladies at the side of the road who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
