It was close to six pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's rugby, at the ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Braishfield and filled petrol in her diesel silver Toyota RAV4 lease car in error. She was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to move the car to a secure position and, as it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we could get to the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Hampshire well done in my books!

AdBlue is definitely devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pulled into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

I'd been told she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural road on route to see her grandchildren. I got the location punched into the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I got to the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel since I'd just purchased it a week ago when my old one, which I had for more than twenty years, inevitably broke down". I finished the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Hampshire lady!

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.
