It was before 10 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were relaxing there discussing the recent football, prepared for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Hungarton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel dark green Cadillac Allante rental car in error. She was very troubled apparently, saying "I can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected position and, as it was only a short distance off from the office, we could find the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Leicestershire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, if we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Leicestershire we have identified a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not knowing the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And absolutely do not switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

If perhaps you get in this position don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the technical expertise and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hungarton

I am certainly not very hot for working weekends, and a week ago was no different. I'd only just departed the family filled with a wonderful dinner prepared for us by the missus, and I was en route to deal with a gentleman who had filled the wrong fuel in his mom's Audi riolet. He was stationed in Hungarton and so I arrived there almost immediately. As I pulled up at the rear of the car and stepped out he told me "Praise God! I incredibly had my concentration on something else and did not perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on any kind of problems by simply running it?" I revealed that there should not be any kind of harm and that also I'd drain the fuel immediately. Obviously I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and then another delighted motorist was able to continue on their trip without the difficulty. The guy could not stop thanking me, and that is what can make earning a living on weekends in Leicestershire just a little bit better for me personally!

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.
