It was just before 5 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's tennis results, waiting around for the 8th call to come in. Eventually we received a call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Brailsford and filled petrol in a diesel buff Hyundai Entourage rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a safe position and, as it was just a short distance from us, we could find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home satisfied and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you have put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid made from a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Brailsford

I am not ever so keen on doing work weekends, and a week ago was no different. I'd just come away from the family filled with a fantastic roast made for us by the wife, and I was on the way to sort out a gentleman who had put the incorrect fuel in his wife's Porsche Cayman. He was only in Brailsford and so I arrived there rapidly. Just as I drove up right behind the car and stepped out he explained to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my concentration on other things and didn't perceive I've put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought about some damage by simply driving it?" I stated that truth be told there probably should not be any damage and also I would remove the fuel immediately for him. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with some suitable fuel, and thus yet another delighted client could carry on with his trip without any hassle. The man couldn't stop thanking me, and this is actually what makes carrying out work on weekends in Derbyshire that tiny bit less painful in my opinion!

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and almost noone was stirring. It was rather dead until now, and me and John were sitting around looking at several old newspapers. That was an unusual restful time in Derbyshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the instant the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The motorist on the phone stated: "I've completed my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in the diesel cream Chevrolet Colorado in error". We asked him to inform us just where the car was situated and we set off, reaching him in Brailsford less than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He thanked us for coming so rapidly. While we were coming back to base we found two young women at the side of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to 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.
