It was just before 6 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and me were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's golf, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in North Cray and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel sunflower yellow Mazda hire car in error. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably can happen. She managed to get the car to a safe area and, as it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we could reach the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. Another job in City of London done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In City of London we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely never turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Doctor North Cray - Fuel Rescue North Cray

It truly was an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had become quite uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were loafing browsing several old papers. This was a rare quiet hour in City of London. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that the moment my mobile ultimately rang I leaped! The customer on the opposite end said: "I've just ended my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in a sombre grey Renault Scenic". I got him to let us know where he was located and we set off, reaching him in North Cray under an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the motor and he said thank you for coming out so promptly. While we were coming back to the office we saw two young women at the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, much 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.
