It was close to 9 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting commenting on the recent football, ready for the next call of the day to come in. Finally we had the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Elton Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel bright red Chevrolet Caprice lease car in error. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a safe space and, as it was only a short distance away from us, we could get to the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and much less concerned. One more job in Cheshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Cheshire we have identified more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it asap. And of course don't switch on the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In case you did start the car you would probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

We fairly recently had a call from a guy who had put the incorrect fuel in his daughter's Jeep Comanche in Elton Green. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the issue up until we conked out. You took the wrong fuel from my car and got it working . I was pleased by both your speed and your charges".

It truly was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly 2 in the morning and noone was around. It was rather dead up to now, and Brian and I were loafing reading through a number of old articles. That was an uncommon quiet time in Cheshire. It was in fact that quiet that the instant the telephone eventually rang I jumped! The customer on the phone explained: "I just finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the baby blue Fiat Doblo". I told him to let us know where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Elton Green no more than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thanks for showing up so quickly. As we were going back home we found two women at the edge of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
