It was about 7 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not ceased raining! James and I were resting there commenting on the football, waiting around for the sixth telephone call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Haggate and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Ferarri red Austin Mini Cooper S hire car in error. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I've ruined the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could get to the lady right away. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off contented and a lot less stressed. One more fuel drain in Greater Manchester well done in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Greater Manchester we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And absolutely don't start up the car - not even to shift it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Should you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
