It was close to 10 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were resting discussing the weekend's footy results, prepared for the sixth job to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Elson and filled petrol in a diesel husband's Renault rental car. She was somewhat distressed it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to get the car to a protected position and, because it was only a few minutes off from our van, we were able to get to the woman quickly.

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we have found a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to people not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously do not turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical competence and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
