It was close to 10 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and me were resting going over the weekend's sports results, waiting for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Stonehouse and put petrol in a diesel deep grey BMW rental car in error. She was very agitated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things sadly happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected area and, as it was just a few miles from where we were, we could get to her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home satisfied and less stressed. Another fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Gloucestershire we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to move it to a parking place. If you have started the car you will probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

If you find yourself in this predicament don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and working experience to get you back on your way promptly 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.
