It was just after seven pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting there discussing the recent footy, waiting for the seventh job that day to come in. Before long we received the call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Woodmancott and filled petrol in her diesel luxury Honda Accord lease car in error. She was very troubled apparently, crying "I cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we could reach the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing in. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off satisfied and much less concerned. A fuel drain in Hampshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Hampshire we are discovering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely never start the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you have started the car you may likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Should you end up in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised expertise and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly 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.
