It was close to 10 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were resting commenting on the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting around for the 8th call that day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Claverton Down and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel partner's Mazda RX-8 hire car in error. She was fairly irritated apparently, crying "I still can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected position and, because it was only a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and not so apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you’ve put AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid made out of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will undoubtedly be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

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.
