The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Bedhampton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They will fix any of the standard issues which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we have identified more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not being aware of how to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And obviously never start the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Should you find yourself in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the practical expertise and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PO9 Postcode - Bedhampton Misfueling

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a bright Wednesday and we were en route to help an older lady who put petrol in her diesel brother's Peugeot 508 in Bedhampton. She told us that she drove away from the filling station and pulled up along a country lane on route to visit her family. I popped her location in the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I arrived at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I had only just acquired it a few days ago right after my former car, which I used for in excess of 30 years, inevitably broke down". I finished the job and she gave me a toffee and said thanks. What a delightful Hampshire woman!

Imagine grinding to a halt in a vehicle with the incorrect fuel in the middle of the street. One of our most recent customers who filled her diesel car with petrol (uncle's Chevrolet Suburban) in Bedhampton encountered literally this issue: "WrongFuelSOS.com's fuel drain guy got my car from the road.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bedhampton - Fuel Rescue Bedhampton

This was exactly what is called the night shift. It was about 2am and almost noone was about. It had been pretty dead thus far, and me and John were sitting about looking at a number of old papers. That was a rare calm moment in Hampshire. It was indeed so relaxing that when the phone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist explained: "I just finished my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my diesel apple green Ford Escort". We instructed him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was located and we hit the road, ending up in Bedhampton under half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine. He thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. As we were returning home we spotted two young women on the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
