The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in The Gibb (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill the car. They will handle the usual issues that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

In Wiltshire we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from drivers not understanding the right way to use it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to turn over the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Should you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the practical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SN14 Postcode - The Gibb Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of sleep! 7:30 on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and I was on the way to help an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel old Volkswagen Scirocco in The Gibb. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour or so. I arrived at the location and removed the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was working she explained, "Now I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car using diesel since I'd only bought it a couple of days ago right after my previous one, which I'd had for about twenty five years, finally stopped working". I got the job completed and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Wiltshire lady!

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.
