It was just after ten pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and me were resting discussing the weekend's golf results, ready for the sixth job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Leamington Hastings and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel rugged Mercedes CLS-Class rental car in error. She was somewhat troubled apparently, saying "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected space and, as it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and not so concerned. One more job in Warwickshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in the event that you have poured AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that’s made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in your tank. The moment the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this scenario don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon cycling during my day off and was feeling delighted the following day as I set off to help a young couple who were away in Leamington Hastings. They stopped after putting the wrong fuel in their son's Audi Allroad, and were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the woman telling her man off for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing happens everyday in Warwickshire and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted good-bye and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would never ever 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.
