It was just after eight pm on a Friday and although we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's footy, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Copythorne and put petrol in a diesel company's Peugeot 206 rental. The poor thing was very distressed it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely forgot I was using a diesel!"

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in case you may have poured AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made from a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the AdBlue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

This was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly dawn and nobody was about. It had been fairly dead so far, and Ryan and I were loafing around reading several old newspapers. That was an uncommon tranquil moment in Hampshire. It was indeed so relaxing that the moment the phone finally rang it made me start! The customer told me: "I have only just ended my night shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in a grass green Audi Quattro in error". We told him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was and we hit the road, ending up in Copythorne under 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine. He thanked us for getting there so promptly. While we were returning home we noticed two women on the side of the highway who seemed like they suffered a flat. Obviously we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
