It was close to seven pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ryan and me were sitting going over the sports rankings, waiting around for the 8th job to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Town Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel son's Mitsubishi 3000GT rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly often happen. She was able to move the car to a secure spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to reach her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home relaxed and not so anxious. Another fuel drain in Lancashire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lancashire we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from people not being totally sure the way to use it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you end up in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical expertise and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in L39 Postcode - Town Green Misfueling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Sunday and we were on my way to assist an elder sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel black Range Rover Sport in Town Green. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded in a country road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I reached the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd only just got it a few days back when my old car, which I'd owned for over twenty five years, finally stopped working". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Lancashire lady!

We fairly recently had a call about a motorist who had put the wrong fuel in his apricot BMW X6 in Town Green. He had broken down on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the dilemma up until it broke down. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning once again. I was happy with both how swift you were and your prices". Of course we got there punctually and purged the engine after draining the wrong fuel from the diesel tank.

This was most definitely what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It was fairly dead until now, and me and Brian were relaxing browsing several old papers. That was an uncommon tranquil hour in Lancashire. It was indeed that calm that when the phone eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the phone said: "I've only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in the diesel Ferarri red Skoda by mistake". I told him to tell us exactly where the car was and we set off, getting to him in Town Green under half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he said many thanks for showing up so fast. As we were coming back to the depot we found two women on the edge of the street who looked like they suffered a puncture. Accordingly we stopped and helped them change it, to their elation.

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 VA 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.
