Petrol in a diesel vehicle in Brains Green? Thanks for visiting Wrong Fuel SoS. Call us and find out exactly how we can aid you to get you going once more.

It was just before six pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were sitting there talking about the recent football results, ready for the 8th telephone call to come in. Before long we received the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Brains Green and put petrol in her diesel clean white Hyundai Accent rental. The unfortunate thing was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from the office, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less worried. A job in Gloucestershire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are finding an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And definitely do not start up the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

We not long ago had a call about a young man who put the wrong fuel in his bright red Volkswagen GLI in Brains Green. He had come to a stand-still on the street. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the dilemma before it ground to a halt. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and got it working . I was pleased by both how swift you were and your pricing". Of course we showed up rapidly and flushed the engine after draining all of the wrong fuel from the diesel tank.

A lady working in Brains Green phoned us shortly after she had tried to get her wrong fueled car to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel dark blue Audi A6 and, like plenty prior to her, assumed that she could just top up the tank with diesel and it would be okay. The vehicle was coughing and then it cut out when she reached the the front of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and had it resolved inside an hour whilst she was at work. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely pleased 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.
