It was close to 8 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting there commenting on the recent tennis results, at the ready for the next call that day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Holme-on-Spalding-Moor and filled petrol in a diesel blue Volvo hire car. She was rather irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we were able to find her swiftly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could return to the hotel she was lodging at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and not so concerned. One more job in East Riding of Yorkshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed if you may have put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It can be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a gloomy Saturday and I was on the way to help an elder woman after she had put petrol in her diesel apple green VW Passat in Holme-on-Spalding-Moor. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and stranded along a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "Now I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I had just bought it a couple of days back when my former car, which I owned for about 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a delightful East Riding of Yorkshire woman!

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.
