It was before 5 pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and me were sitting talking about the sports, at the ready for the seventh call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Fenton and put petrol in a diesel beloved Skoda Superb rental. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed apparently, crying "I still can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure position and, as it was only a few miles off from our van, we could arrive at her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Cambridgeshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers not knowing how to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not start up the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Any time you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts have the technical expertise and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Fenton - Wrong Fuel in Car Fenton

I had appreciated a fantastic day hiking during my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the following day as I was en route to aid a young family who were on holiday in Fenton. They pulled over after inserting diesel in their yellow Mazda MX-3, and the car was close to half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman telling off her man for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this situation happens on daily basis in Cambridgeshire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to get worried about, but he all the same had an earful. Poor guy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the exact same error... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Fenton

We a few weeks ago had a phone call from a man who put the wrong fuel in his metallic yellow Mercedes SL65 AMG in Fenton. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After adding unleaded in my diesel car I didn't notice the issue till it ground to a halt. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and got it functioning again. I was amazed as a result of both how quick you were and your charges". It goes without saying that we arrived on the scene promptly and flushed the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank. The client was delighted by the time we finished and he was able to drive off cheerful.

This really was what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to dawn and almost noone was stirring. It had been fairly dead thus far, and me and Paul were sitting about looking through a number of old articles. This was a rare tranquil time in Cambridgeshire. It was in fact that peaceful that when the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer on the phone told me: "I concluded my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in my diesel silver Nissan Pathfinder in error". I got him to tell us just where he was and we left, arriving in Fenton under 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us for coming so fast. As we were going back home we spotted two young women on the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
