It was after ten pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Dan and me were sitting talking about the golf rankings, waiting for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Before long we got the phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Boys Hill and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel aunt's BMW 330 hire car in error. She was pretty troubled it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly happen. She was able to get the car to a safe position and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do if you’ve poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be squirted into your fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle every type of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Dorset - Petrol in Diesel Car Boys Hill

We fairly recently got a call from a motorist who had put the incorrect fuel in his metallic blue Volkswagen Touareg 2 in Boys Hill. He had ground to a halt on the road. "I couldn't believe how quick you were in sending a technician out to assist me after I stupidly unleaded in my diesel car. Thank you". Naturally we arrived promptly and flushed the engine after draining all the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival the fuel drainer said the driver was fuming, but was happy when we finished.

This was what we call the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and almost noone was about. It was fairly dead up to now, and me and Ryan were loafing about looking through a few old magazines. This was a rare peaceful time in Dorset. Actually it was indeed that calm that when the phone rang it made me start! The voice on the phone stated: "I have only just completed my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel cobalt blue Chrysler Grand Voyager in error". I told him to tell us where he was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Boys Hill under an hour or so later. The fuel was extracted from the car. He thanked us for showing up so rapidly. As we were coming back home we saw two young women at the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we got out and helped 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 VA 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.
