It was after ten pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting going over the tennis rankings, prepared for the 6th job to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Woodfield and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel old Cadillac Eldorado hire car in error. She was very irritated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, because it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we could find the lady without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off calm and a lot less concerned. A fuel drain in Oxfordshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we can empty it for you.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Oxfordshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not being aware of the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.

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

Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely do not switch on the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Wednesday and I was en route to help an elder woman who had put petrol in her diesel maroon VW GTI in Woodfield. She informed us that she had left the filling station and pulled up on a backwater road on the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I got to the location and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I am getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a couple of days ago when my previous one, which I used for in excess of thirty years, inevitably broke down". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks. What a delightful Oxfordshire lady!

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.
