It was about 7 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were sitting talking over the footy rankings, waiting around for the 8th job that day to come in. In due time we received the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in South Merstham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel clean white Hyundai Tiburon rental. The poor thing was very agitated it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could reach the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the motel she was staying in. Although we got very drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and not so concerned. Yet another job in Surrey done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises with old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Surrey to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, if we can access it, we can drain it.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in case you have poured AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made out of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Should you end up in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the technical expertise and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RH1 Postcode - South Merstham Misfueling

A customer had stopped on a road, South Merstham just after having put the wrong fuel in her car. She was weeping and truly distressed as she had put £55 of petrol in her diesel car. When she called us we tried to relax her as well as we could, encouraging her that it would be alright. When we arrived with her she was not distressed any more and was really intrigued in observing our fuel drainer perform the fuel drain on her canary yellow Saab 9-5. Afterwards she said: "My vehicle is akin to my child, I recently bought it and so it especially concerned me that I had put such a large amount of wrong fuel in it. I'm so happy that it was so easily fixable."

Wrong Fuel Assist South Merstham - Wrong Fuel in Car South Merstham

I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon hiking during my off day and was feeling pleased the following day as I set out to help a new family who were away in South Merstham. They broken down after adding petrol into their sunflower yellow BMW 7 Series, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl berating her partner for being so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this takes place on daily basis in Surrey and that it's nothing to get worried about, even so he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed goodbye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

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.
