It was about 10 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were relaxing commenting on the recent golf results, ready for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Before long we had the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Otterwood and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel stylish VW Beetle lease car in error. She was pretty distressed apparently, crying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, since it was just a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Hampshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do if you’ve put AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in your tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Any time you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the practical knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

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.
