It was after five pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were sitting commenting on the footy results, waiting around for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Ightfield Heath and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel winter grey Mitsubishi Lancer hire car in error. She was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to find her right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. One more job in Shropshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Shropshire we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people not knowing the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly don't crank the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

In case you get in this position don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

It truly was what is called the night shift. It was close to 3 in the morning and noone was stirring. It had been rather quiet so far, and me and Mark were loafing around reading through several old articles. That was an unusual quiet moment in Shropshire. It was that quiet that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me jump! The motorist explained: "I have only just completed my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in the diesel mint condition Daihatsu Rocky". We got him to let us know where exactly he was situated and we left, arriving in Ightfield Heath only 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the engine and he said thank you for arriving so promptly. As we were returning home we noticed two ladies on the side of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. As a result we pulled up and helped them change it, to their delight.

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.
