It was close to 9 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting talking about the footy rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Moulton and filled petrol in a diesel cyan Mercedes-Benz SL-Class rental. She was fairly troubled apparently, stating "I just can't believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!"

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank lying in the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Northamptonshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Northamptonshire we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Whenever you get in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical skills and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and we were en route to assist an elder lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel elegant Audi RS6 in Moulton. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a country road on the way to visit her godchildren. I got the location plugged into the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "Now I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car using diesel since I'd just got it a short while back when my old car, which I had for in excess of thirty years, inevitably died on me". I got the job done and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. What a precious Northamptonshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Moulton - Wrong Fuel in Car Moulton

I'd had a fantastic evening hiking during my holiday and was feeling delighted the next morning as I set off to aid a new couple holidaying in Moulton. They broken down after adding diesel into their modern Peugeot 306, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and smiled as I heard to the girl chastising her partner for being so confused. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this problem occurs on a regular basis in Northamptonshire and that it's nothing at all to stress about, but he still had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove down the road I waved so long and pondered on what my missus would say to me in the event that I made the same error... I would under no circumstances live it down!

A young lady driving in Moulton contacted us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to the office. She had filled petrol in her diesel trusty Peugeot 2008 and, like countless before her, assumed that she would be able to just top up the tank with diesel and it'd be okay. The car was spluttering and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain following her call and had it repaired within an hour while she was in the office. She came out soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely delighted 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 VAT 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.
