Incorrect fuel in your car in The Strand? You've arrived at the right place. We are able to help you in this situation and get you driving again with our expert fuel drain service.

It was before 9 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and me were seated there talking about the weekend's football, prepared for the next job of the day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in The Strand and put petrol in a diesel brother's Toyota Land Cruiser rental car in error. She was pretty agitated it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things often happen. She was able to get the car to a secure space and, since it was just a few minutes away from the office, we were able to find the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off relaxed and not so worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Wiltshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you have poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is actually disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in BA14 Postcode - The Strand Misfueling

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a bright Sunday and we were off to assist an old lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel racing green Kia Soul in The Strand. She told us that she had left the filling station and was pulled up on a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location punched in the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I reached the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel seeing that I'd only just acquired it a few days ago when my other car, which I had owned for more than 25 years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she presented me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Wiltshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car The Strand

Just picture conking out in a car contaminated with the wrong fuel halfway down the street. One of our last customers who put petrol in his diesel car (husband's Daewoo Leganza) in The Strand suffered from precisely this kind of trouble: "Obviously I wrongly put unleaded in my diesel car a few days ago. I was so distressed about the wrong fuel in my car that I was in tears. However I shouldn't have worried seeing that you were marvelous in dealing with the problem."

A driver who had unluckily put unleaded in his diesel dirty red Nissan Cube contacted us for a fuel drain at the petrol filling station in The Strand. He had decided to top up before proceeding on to the nearby caravan park . "I put petrol as opposed to diesel which unfortunately wasn't a great way to start to our getaway." It was really no challenge at all for our technician to go along and perform the fuel drain. We hope the family had a good holiday break.

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.
