It was before 5 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there commenting on the recent football results, prepared for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Faygate and filled petrol in a diesel mum's Citron DS4 hire car by mistake. She was somewhat troubled apparently, stating "I cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe space and, as it was only a short distance from where we were, we could arrive at the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and a lot less stressed. A fuel drain in West Sussex done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you’ve poured AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s composed of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will undoubtedly be dragged into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If perhaps you end up in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have the specialised knowledge and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist Faygate - Wrong Fuel in Car Faygate

I enjoyed a fantastic evening hiking on my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I set off to help a new couple who were vacationing in Faygate. They'd pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel into their son's Volkswagen Eurovan, and were about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smiled as I heard to the woman chastising her hubby for actually being so daft. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this comes to pass regularly in West Sussex and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, but he yet still got an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I drained the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed farewell and wondered what my missus would ask me if I made the same mistake... I'd never ever live it down!

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.
