It was close to 7 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a rainless evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Brian and me were resting discussing the weekend's football results, ready for the 6th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Alderford and filled petrol in her diesel light green Volkswagen Golf rental car by mistake. She was rather distressed apparently, stating "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was just a short distance from where we were, we were able to get to her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home contented and less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you have put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually devastating to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with AdBlue in your fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle all types of AdBlue 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 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.
