It was before 10 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were resting there talking over the recent footy results, waiting around for the next call of the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Monnington on Wye and filled petrol in her diesel partner's Jaguar XJ rental car. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, as it was just a few minutes from us, we were able to find the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive away contented and not so worried. Yet another job in Herefordshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Herefordshire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by people not understanding the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And absolutely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Whenever you get in this position don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the specialised competence and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a gloomy Sunday and we were en route to help an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel mint green Chevrolet Camaro in Monnington on Wye. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I reached the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel since I had only just purchased it a few days ago right after my former car, which I'd owned for about twenty five years, finally broke down". I finished the drain and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant Herefordshire 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.
