It was just before 9 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated there talking over the recent tennis, prepared for the sixth telephone call of the day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Parmoor and put the wrong fuel in her diesel dirty red Range Rover Evoque lease car. The poor thing was very agitated apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was just a few miles off from us, we could find the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the hotel she was living at. Although we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and not so anxious. One more fuel drain in Buckinghamshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Buckinghamshire we are discovering progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not understanding how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you find yourself in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the technical knowledge and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Parmoor

Now I am not actually excessively hot for working on Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just departed the family after having a superb Sunday roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was off to deal with a man who put the wrong petrol in his father's Hyundai HED-5. He was situated in Parmoor therefore it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I arrived right behind the vehicle and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and did not ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I created problems by driving it?" I revealed that truth be told there shouldn't be any harm and also I would personally remove the wrong fuel quickly for him. Needless to say I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and so another pleased customer had the ability to continue their trip without any hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that helps make carrying out work on weekends in Buckinghamshire that little bit less painful for me personally!

A motorist working in Parmoor contacted us shortly after she managed to get her misfueled car to her office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel maroon Volkswagen Eurovan and, like many people prior to her, believed that she would be able to just fill her vehicle with diesel and it would run okay. The vehicle was coughing and then it stopped when she came to the entrance of her office. We soon went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it fixed in an hour or so while she was at work. She came out later on and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely delighted you sorted my car."

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.
