It was after 7 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated going over the recent tennis rankings, waiting around for the 8th call of the day to arrive. In due time we had the call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Everleigh and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel raspberry red Peugeot 407 hire car by mistake. She was very affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this regrettably can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe space and, because it was no more than a short distance from the office, we were able to find the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away satisfied and not so concerned. One more misfuel correction in Wiltshire well done in my mind!

We can easily get out to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to fix any of the common problems which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Wiltshire we have identified progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not knowing the right way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And obviously don't start up the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Everleigh - Wrong Fuel in Car Everleigh

I had enjoyed a perfect evening hiking during the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the following day as I set off to aid a new couple who were away in Everleigh. They'd pulled over after adding diesel into their cyan Isuzu Amigo, and were close to an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled while I heard to the lady telling her hubby off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place all the time in Wiltshire and that it's really nothing at all to stress about, but he in spite of everything had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate boy. Anyhow, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. As they drove off I waved goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I would never hear the end of it!

We supply you with fresh fuel at pump prices, and we will generally have your car done and in a position to set off within one hour.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Everleigh

We got a telephone call from a gentleman whose creamy white Peugeot 508 had stopped on a street after a misfuel. "I mixed up the pumps and pumped the wrong fuel in my car by mistake. These guys arrived and resolved the issue when my car quit." We purged the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the system meticulously and the customer was able to proceed with his scheduled delivery.

This was certainly what we call the night shift. It was close to 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It had become quite quiet so far, and me and Ray were relaxing reading through several old papers. It was an uncommon calm time in Wiltshire. It was indeed so relaxing that the instant my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The motorist explained: "I have only just finished my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the bright red Hyundai Elantra". I got him to inform us where he was located and we headed out, reaching him in Everleigh not as much as an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he thanked us for arriving so fast. As we were returning home we spotted two ladies at the edge of the street who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
