It was just after 5 pm on a Friday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were relaxing discussing the tennis, waiting for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Walton Cardiff and put petrol in her diesel bright yellow Volkswagen GTI rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the car into a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we were able to get to the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away calm and a lot less concerned. One more job in Gloucestershire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do in case you’ve poured AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made from a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pulled into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

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.
