It was before six pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not ceased raining! James and me were sitting there going over the weekend's rugby, prepared for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Paintmoor and filled petrol in a diesel father's Audi RS4 lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly troubled apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was no more than a few miles away from us, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and not so worried. One more misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you’ve put AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made from a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It can be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will undoubtedly be injected into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Paintmoor

Now I am not so enthusiastic about doing work on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just come away from the wife and kids filled with a superb dinner cooked for me by the missus, and I was off to help a gentleman who put the incorrect fuel in his dirty red Cadillac STS. He was somewhere in Paintmoor so I was with him before long. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my concentration on stuff and did not realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought about any kind of damage through driving it?" I determined that generally there should not be damage and that also I'd get the fuel drained at once. It goes without saying that I drained the fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and then yet another contented motorist had the ability to continue their traveling without the hassle. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this can make carrying out work on Sundays in Somerset a tiny bit better for me personally!

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.
