It was close to six pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the weekend's tennis rankings, prepared for the 8th job to come in. In due time we received a call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Ladbroke and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel metallic green Audi Quattro rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated apparently, stating "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the car into a secure space and, since it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could arrive at her right away. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the motel she was living at. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off contented and less stressed. A misfuel correction in Warwickshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in case you may have put AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made out of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It can be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was around sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had become quite uneventful so far, and Mark and I were relaxing browsing some old papers. That was an uncommon calm moment in Warwickshire. It was in fact so quiet that the moment the telephone inevitably rang I leaped! The motorist on the other end told me: "I've finished my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my mate's Daewoo Leganza". I instructed him to inform us just where the car was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Ladbroke no more than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car. He said thank you for showing up so promptly. As we were coming back to the depot we spotted two ladies on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat. As a result we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
