It was around 7 pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting there talking over the recent golf rankings, waiting for the 8th telephone call to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Tunstead Milton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel deep grey Fiat Punto hire car in error. The poor thing was rather distressed apparently, crying "I still can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to worry, also that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was only a few miles from the office, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off satisfied and a lot less anxious. One more job in Derbyshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in case you’ve put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is certainly disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you find yourself in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
