It was around eight pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were resting there discussing the recent tennis rankings, ready for the 6th job of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Matlaske and filled petrol in a diesel buff VW Passat rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off calm and much less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Norfolk done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you may have put AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution composed of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will be pulled into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

This was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It was quite uneventful up to now, and me and Mark were relaxing browsing a number of old newspapers. That was a rare calm time in Norfolk. It was indeed so peaceful that the moment the telephone rang I leaped! The customer on the opposite end explained: "I have just ended my overnight shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel aunt's Chevrolet Cavalier in error". I asked him to inform us exactly where he was located and we set off, arriving in Matlaske less than 30 minutes later. The fuel was taken out from the motor and he said many thanks for showing up so promptly. While we were coming back home we found two women on the edge of the road who seemed like they had a puncture. Obviously we pulled over and helped them 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.
