It was close to 10 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not ceased raining! Paul and I were seated there talking over the football rankings, prepared for the 8th job that day to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Melton Mowbray and put petrol in a diesel modified Audi A4 rental. The poor lady was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things do happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, as it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to reach her right away. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could return to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. A job in Leicestershire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in case you may have poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made out of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is actually harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be injected into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Call us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
