It was just after eight pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting there going over the recent tennis rankings, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain that day to arrive. Eventually we got the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Attleborough and put petrol in a diesel grass green Isuzu Amigo lease car. She was pretty irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a protected position and, since it was just a few miles from where we were, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could return to the Travelodge she was lodging in.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in case you have poured AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made from a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is actually disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If perhaps you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the specialised know-how and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Attleborough

I am certainly not too hot for doing work on weekends, and last week was no different. I'd only just departed the family after eating a magnificent Sunday roast prepared for us by the wife, and I was off to assist a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his compact VW Scirocco. He was situated in Attleborough hence it wouldn't be long before I reached him. As I arrived at the rear of the car and stepped out he told me "Thank the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and did not realise I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on some harm because of starting it?" I explained truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of harm and that I'd get the fuel drained as quickly as possible. Obviously I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with the correct fuel, and thus yet another happy motorist had the ability to continue on their traveling without difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what tends to make working on weekends in Norfolk that little bit easier in my opinion!

A woman employed in Attleborough phoned us as soon as she had tried to get her misfueled car to her office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel gorgeous Mazda B-Series and, like plenty prior to her, believed that she could simply fill the tank with diesel and it would run no problem. The car was coughing and then it cut out when she arrived at the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it repaired within an hour or so whilst she was at the office. She came out later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really pleased you repaired my car."

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.
