It was after 10 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there discussing the footy results, prepared for the next call of the day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Sling and put petrol in her diesel light blue MINI Cooper rental in error. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the car into a secure position and, because it was only a few miles from us, we were able to get to the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could get back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away calm and much less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!

We can get out to re-fill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They will be able to handle the typical issues which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not start the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

If perhaps you end up in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have the practical skills and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
