It was close to five pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were seated there talking about the weekend's tennis results, ready for the seventh fuel drain to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Cripplestyle and put petrol in her diesel cream Nissan Murano rental. She was fairly troubled apparently, saying "I can not believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, also that these things do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure position and, as it was just a short distance away from where we were, we could reach the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and much less worried. A misfuel correction in Dorset well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Dorset we are encountering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely don't start up the car - not even to move it to a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Any time you get in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the technical competence and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car Dorset - Petrol in Diesel Car Cripplestyle

Now I am not necessarily that interested in running Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just left the wife and kids after having a fantastic Sunday roast made for us by the better half, and I was off to deal with a fellow who filled the incorrect fuel in his dirty red Audi Quattro. He was only in Cripplestyle thus I was there rapidly. Just as I drove up at the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I had my thoughts on other things and failed to realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused any harm through driving it?" I explained that truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that also I would remove the contaminated fuel as soon as possible. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and then another delighted customer could carry on with his trip without difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this tends to make operating on weekends in Dorset just a small bit easier for me personally!

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.
