It was just after 5 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting going over the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP filling station in Hammer Bottom and put petrol in her diesel metallic green VW Touareg 2 lease car in error. The poor thing was very agitated it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could go home to the motel she was living in.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in the event that you’ve poured AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s composed of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Contact us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
