It was about seven pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and me were sitting there talking about the recent football results, prepared for the sixth telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we got the call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Gretton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel mum's BMW rental by mistake. She was very affected apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we could arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing at.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in case you may have put AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that’s composed of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the technical skills and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

A woman employed in Gretton called us shortly after she had managed to get her wrong fueled car to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel metallic red Land Rover Discovery and, like many prior to her, thought that she could just fill her car with diesel and it'd be okay. The vehicle was coughing and then it cut out when she got to the entrance of her work. We soon started on the fuel drain after she called and had it repaired in one hour whilst she was in the office. She came out soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you sorted 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.
