It was just after seven pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! James and I were resting there talking about the sports rankings, waiting around for the 8th job for the day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Outlet Village and put petrol in a diesel sunflower yellow Suzuki Vitara rental car. The unfortunate thing was very distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly often happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cheshire we are noticing a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not being totally sure how to use it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it right away. And obviously don't switch on the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised competence and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car in CH65 Postcode - Outlet Village Misfueling

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Sunday and I was on the way to help an older lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel light blue Toyota Corolla in Outlet Village. I'd been told she had left the petrol station and was broken down in a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got the location plugged straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I got to the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel since I had just got it a week back right after my previous one, which I'd owned for over thirty years, eventually gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Cheshire woman!

This was the graveyard shift. It was about 2am and hardly anyone was stirring. It was rather uneventful until now, and me and Brian were loafing about looking at several old articles. That was an uncommon quiet time in Cheshire. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that when the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The voice on the other end explained: "I've finished my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in a diesel rugged Fiat Scudo by mistake". I got him to tell us exactly where the car was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Outlet Village no more than an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He thanked us for arriving so quickly. As we were heading back to the office we noticed two girls at the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. As a result we pulled up to change it, 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.
