Eventually we had a call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Bovingdon Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel stylish BMW 545 rental in error. The poor thing was somewhat affected it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the car!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in case you may have poured AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s composed of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, bringing about devastating and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Should you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no 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.
