It was just after five pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated talking about the weekend's golf results, waiting for the next telephone call to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Gorton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel canary yellow Subaru Impreza WRX lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was very troubled apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to arrive at her rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home satisfied and not so concerned. Another misfuel correction in Greater Manchester done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

What you can do if you have poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made from a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you end up in this position don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the technical expertise and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car Greater Manchester - Petrol in Diesel Car Gorton

Now I am not that hot for running on Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd only just departed home after having a magnificent dinner cooked by the missus, and I was off to sort out a man after he filled the wrong fuel in his mum's Hyundai Santa Fe. He was situated in Gorton so I arrived there very quickly. Just as I drove up right behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my concentration on other considerations and failed to perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted some harm because of driving it?" I revealed that truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of harm and also that I'd get the wrong fuel drained quickly for him. As expected I drained the fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and another happy client had the ability to carry on with their traveling without the need for difficulty. The guy did not stop thanking me, and that helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Greater Manchester a little bit less painful to me!

A customer from Gorton with her kids in her diesel friend's Volvo940 had put £50 of petrol at the Tesco petrol station. She called us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that all would be alright and that she would be in action soon. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the little ones on board."

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 VA 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.
