It was before 6 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing going over the rugby, prepared for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Kitwood and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel luxury Isuzu i-370 rental. The poor lady was rather distressed apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was just a few minutes from where we were, we could reach the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off relaxed and less worried. A misfuel correction in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it if you’ve poured AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about serious and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Should you get in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the specialised expertise and experience to have 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.
