It was after 7 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and me were relaxing going over the rugby, waiting for the sixth telephone call to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Moorhaigh and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel husband's Honda Civic Si hire car by mistake. She was somewhat troubled apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to find the woman right away. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive away calm and much less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Nottinghamshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

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

AdBlue is a solution that is composed of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is certainly disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

What a good night of sleep! 7:30 am on a sunny Saturday and we were on the way to assist an older lady who had put petrol in her diesel compact Fiat Uno in Moorhaigh. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a country lane on route to visit her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd just bought it a couple of days ago after my other one, which I owned for about 30 years, finally stopped working". I got the job done and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Nottinghamshire woman!

We were called by a gentleman whose navy blue Renault Kangoo had conked out on a road after a misfuel. "I got the pumps mixed up and put the wrong fuel in my vehicle by mistake. You came out and sorted out the matter after my vehicle died." We drained the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the engine thoroughly and the gentleman could go on with his deliveries.

It truly was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and almost noone was stirring. It was rather uneventful up to now, and Mark and I were sitting perusing a number of old magazines. That was an uncommon quiet moment in Nottinghamshire. It was indeed that calm that when the phone inevitably rang I jumped! The person said: "I have finished my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel green Hyundai Equus in error". I asked him to let us know where exactly the car was located and we set off, reaching him in Moorhaigh under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car. He thanked us profusely for coming out so promptly. While we were returning home we spotted two young ladies on the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. Obviously we got out to 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 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.
