It was close to 7 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing there talking over the football rankings, ready for the 8th job to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Knowle Fields and put petrol in a diesel khaki green Chevrolet Cavalier lease car in error. The poor thing was quite agitated apparently, saying "I can not believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things sadly happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was just a few minutes from the office, we could reach her quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to return to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away relaxed and less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Worcestershire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!

We are able to come to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They can also handle any of the most common problems which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Worcestershire we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out right away. And absolutely don't start the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the car you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Should you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised knowledge and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
