It was around six pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there talking about the golf results, at the ready for the next telephone call to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Cerne Abbas and filled petrol in her diesel yellow Suzuki Sidekick rental. The unfortunate thing was very irritated it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a protected space and, because it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we could find the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and a lot less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Dorset well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in case you have put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution made of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with AdBlue in your diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

If you find yourself in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the practical know-how and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
