It was close to five pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were sitting there talking about the recent football rankings, at the ready for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Southwood and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel bright red Hyundai Scoupe rental in error. The poor lady was rather agitated apparently, crying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected spot and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to reach the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the motel she was staying in.

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in the event that you may have poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

I enjoyed a wonderful evening hiking on the weekend and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I headed out to help a new family who were away in Southwood. They'd pulled over after inserting diesel in their faithful BMW, and were about half an hour away. I got there at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the wife chastising her spouse for being so daft. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this problem occurs frequently in Somerset and that it's in reality nothing at all to be concerned about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent. Unlucky chap. Anyhow, I drained all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted so long and thought about what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I'd never live it down!

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.
