It was around 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were seated talking about the weekend's sports results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Duke End and put petrol in a diesel uncle's Toyota FJ Cruiser lease car. She was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things sadly happen. She managed to move the car into a secure area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could arrive at the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Warwickshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in case you have poured AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is composed of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It can be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with AdBlue in the tank. Once the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you find yourself in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

I had enjoyed a great evening hiking on my off day and felt pleased with myself the next day as I set off to help a new family who were vacationing in Duke End. They stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their mustard yellow Hyundai, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and smiled while I listened to the lady berating her spouse for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this situation happens constantly in Warwickshire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, but he in spite of everything had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove away I mouthed bon voyage and considered what my missus would tell me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I would personally 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.
