It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were relaxing discussing the sports rankings, at the ready for the 8th job that day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Parsons Green and filled petrol in her diesel red Land Rover Defender lease car in error. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing that it was just a few miles away from the office, we could find the lady without delay. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and not so concerned. One more job in Hammersmith and Fulham well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Hammersmith and Fulham we are finding a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of people not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the car.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it immediately. And most definitely don't turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Any time you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have the technical competence and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

It truly was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly 2am and hardly anyone was stirring. It was quite uneventful until now, and Ryan and I were relaxing reading through several old newspapers. It was an uncommon quiet time in Hammersmith and Fulham. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that when my mobile ultimately rang it made me start! The customer explained: "I just ended my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a super Chevrolet Cavalier". I got him to inform us exactly where the car was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Parsons Green under 30 minutes later.

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.
