It was before five pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were seated discussing the golf, prepared for the next job to arrive. Before long we got a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Little Comberton and filled petrol in a diesel metallic silver Alfa Romeo Spider rental car. The poor lady was rather irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, since it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we were able to find the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing in. Although we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away contented and less concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

What you should do in the event that you’ve poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is certainly damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with AdBlue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you get in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the specialised competence and experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in WR10 Postcode - Little Comberton Misfueling

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and I was on the way to assist an older lady after she had put petrol in her diesel work's Land Rover Range Rover Evoque in Little Comberton. I'd been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a backwater road on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she explained, "I have been getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I'd just acquired it a few days back right after my former car, which I had owned for about 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely Worcestershire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Little Comberton - Wrong Fuel in Car Little Comberton

I had a great afternoon fishing during my afternoon off and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I headed out to aid a new family who were holidaying in Little Comberton. They pulled over after inserting petrol in their buff Chevrolet Camaro, and the car was around half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the wife telling her husband off for being so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this goes on on a regular basis in Worcestershire and that it's really nothing at all to worry about, but he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I drained the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I waved so long and wondered what her indoors would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

A driver from Little Comberton with a full car of children in her diesel cyan Honda Ridgeline had put £40 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She contacted us sobbing and very distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what could happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that everything would be okay and that she would be back ready to go very quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined.

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.
