It was about seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were resting there commenting on the recent sports rankings, prepared for the next job of the day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Butleigh Wootton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel compact Skoda rental. The poor thing was somewhat agitated it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a protected position and, since it was just a few miles off from the office, we were able to reach her swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and a lot less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of people not understanding the way to use it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the car.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to move it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

If perhaps you end up in this situation don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the specialised competence and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

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 VA 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.
