It was before ten pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and I were relaxing discussing the recent rugby, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain to come in. Before long we got a call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Leagreen and filled petrol in a diesel metallic grey Skoda Fabia lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty troubled it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from our van, we could get to her right away. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the hotel she was living in. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off calm and less anxious. One more job in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do if you have put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will undoubtedly be squirted into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Contact us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SO41 Postcode - Leagreen Misfueling

What a fantastic night of sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and I was on the way to assist an old lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel luxury Mercedes SL65 AMG in Leagreen. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station and stranded on a country road along the way to visit her family. I got the location plugged straight into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel because I had only just purchased it a short while back when my former car, which I used for in excess of twenty years, inevitably broke down". I finished the drain and she gave me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a lovely 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.
