It was just before five pm on a Friday and while we were assured a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and me were seated there talking over the weekend's footy, at the ready for the 6th call for the day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Aston and put petrol in her diesel modified Audi A4 hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this happen. She managed to get the car into a protected spot and, as it was just a short distance away from where we were, we could find the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away satisfied and less stressed.

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Aston (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill your car. They are also able to handle any of the common troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Staffordshire we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being totally sure how to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Any time you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised skills and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

A lady working in Aston phoned us as soon as she managed to get her misfueled vehicle to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel baby blue Mercedes-Benz S-Class and, like plenty prior to her, believed that she would be able to just top up her car with diesel and it'd be okay. The car was spluttering and then it died when she arrived at the entrance of her office.

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 VAT 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.
