It was after eight pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and me were resting there commenting on the rugby results, waiting for the 6th job that day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Regents Park and put petrol in her diesel shiny Hyundai Elantra rental in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated it seemed, crying "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at the woman without delay.

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hammersmith and Fulham we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly never start the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Should you get in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
