It was about 8 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were resting going over the weekend's sports results, prepared for the 8th job for the day to come in. In due time we got a call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Fressingfield and put the wrong fuel in a diesel shiny Isuzu i-370 hire car in error. She was very affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to get to the lady without delay. The bad fuel was removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Suffolk well done in my opinion!

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


AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in case you have poured AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is actually disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Monday and we were off to assist an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel baby blue Kia Optima in Fressingfield. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and broken down in a rural road en route to visit her grandchildren. I plugged the location into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I reached the location and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel since I had just acquired it a week back right after my former one, which I had used for in excess of twenty five years, eventually broke down". I got the drain done and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Suffolk lady!

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.
