It was close to 6 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were seated there commenting on the weekend's tennis, waiting around for the next call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Bishops Offley and put petrol in a diesel light blue BMW M rental in error. The unfortunate thing was very irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we were able to get to the woman without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home calm and less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Staffordshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Staffordshire we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the car.

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

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at once. And absolutely be careful not to start up the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the car you may likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

A woman from Bishops Offley with a full car of little ones in her diesel spotless Ford Fiesta had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the filling station. She called us crying and very distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and didn't know what might happen to her car in doing so. We told her that the car would be alright and that she would be on the road soon.

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.
