It was after 7 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's golf, waiting for the next job of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Bean and put petrol in her diesel grey Mercedes-Benz R-Class rental car in error. She was fairly troubled apparently, crying "I still can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, because it was just a few minutes from the office, we were able to reach the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and less apprehensive. Another job in Hackney well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Hackney we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly take care not to start up the engine - not even to shift it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Whenever you end up in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the technical competence and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and we were en route to assist an elder woman after she put petrol in her diesel trusty Isuzu Amigo in Bean. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station and was pulled up along a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I got to the car and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing it she said to me, "I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel since I had only purchased it a few days back when my previous car, which I had had for in excess of thirty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she gave me a toffee and said thank you. What a precious Hackney woman!

I appreciated a terrific day fishing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the next working day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were on vacation in Bean. They conked out after putting diesel into their maroon Kia Soul, and were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the girl berating her man for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this problem happens all the time in Hackney and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, nonetheless he still got an ear bashing. Poor lad. Anyhow, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted good-bye and pondered on what my missus would tell me if ever I made the very same error... I'd personally never live it down!

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.
