It was around 9 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were relaxing there talking about the recent football rankings, waiting around for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Teversal and put petrol in her diesel winter grey Land Rover Range Rover rental car. The poor thing was quite affected apparently, saying "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and not so apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Nottinghamshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Nottinghamshire we have identified increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely take care not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will probably need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Should you discover yourself to be in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
