It was about seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were resting going over the golf, waiting for the seventh call of the day to come in. Eventually we received a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Hailes and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel daughter's Renault Laguna hire car in error. The poor lady was very troubled apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe space and, as it was only a short distance away from our van, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off satisfied and less concerned. A fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed if you may have put AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical composed of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, bringing about serious and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

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.
