It was just before 9 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were resting there going over the football, waiting for the sixth call to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Bickley and filled petrol in a diesel grey Cadillac DTS rental car by mistake. She was very agitated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we were able to arrive at her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off contented and not so anxious. Another job in Bromley well done in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you’ve poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made out of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It can be disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Any time you end up in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the technical competence and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bickley

Now I am certainly not overly excited about doing work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd only just departed home following a tasty Sunday roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was en route to help a man after he filled the wrong petrol in his boss' BMW 330. He was located in Bickley so I was with him before long. Just as I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on stuff and did not grasp that I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused any kind of problems because of running it?" I said that there should not be damage and that also I would remove the wrong fuel quickly. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and one more pleased motorist was able to carry on with their trip without the need for hassle. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is exactly what makes working on Sundays in Bromley a little better for me personally!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bickley - Fuel Rescue Bickley

A lady from Bickley with her youngsters in her diesel metallic red Citron Picasso had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She called us crying and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and did not know what would happen to her car . We assured her that the vehicle should be okay and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived she was visible distressed but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the children on board."

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.
