It was before 5 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain!

Finally we got a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Sidestrand and filled petrol in her diesel metallic yellow Lexus LX rental by mistake. She was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I can not believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!"

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in case you’ve put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made from a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is actually harmful to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the AdBlue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Sidestrand

Now I'm not actually that enthusiastic about doing the job weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd only just departed home after eating a lovely Sunday roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was off to deal with a man because he put the incorrect petrol in his stylish Cadillac Allante. He was somewhere in Sidestrand so it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. Just as I arrived at the rear of the car and stepped out he explained to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my attention on other considerations and did not perceive I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted any damage as a result of starting it?" I explained that there probably should not be harm and that I'd remove the wrong fuel quickly. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and then one more content motorist had the ability to continue his traveling without any subsequent hassle. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what makes earning a living on Sundays in Norfolk just a tiny bit easier to me!

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.
