It was before 10 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were sitting there going over the tennis results, waiting around for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in West Leigh and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel shiny Fiat Punto rental car by mistake. She was fairly distressed it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could find her almost instantly.

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we have noticed progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And of course never start up the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

In case you end up in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the specialised competence and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was close to 3 in the morning and noone was around. It had been fairly uneventful so far, and Paul and I were loafing about reading through several old papers. It was an unusual peaceful time in Somerset. It was indeed that peaceful that the instant my mobile rang it made me jump! The motorist told me: "I've concluded my evening shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my old Mercedes CLK-Class by mistake". We got him to tell us where exactly he was and we left, getting to him in West Leigh under half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He thanked us profusely for arriving so quickly. As we were heading back home we saw two women at the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. So we got out to help them change it, much 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 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.
