It was after 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and me were sitting commenting on the recent golf, prepared for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Before long we got the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Easthaugh and filled petrol in her diesel modified Citron rental by mistake. She was fairly agitated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly do happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance off from us, we were able to arrive at the woman right away. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the motel she was living in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Norfolk well done in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you’ve poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution composed of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to devastating and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NR9 Postcode - Easthaugh Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Tuesday and we were off to help an older sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel mint green Lexus LS in Easthaugh. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural road along the way to visit her family. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I turned up at the car and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel because I had only got it a couple of days ago after my previous one, which I'd owned for about 30 years, eventually stopped working". I completed the job and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a precious Norfolk woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Easthaugh - Wrong Fuel in Car Easthaugh

I had appreciated a terrific evening cycling on the weekend and felt contented with myself the following day as I headed out to help a young family holidaying in Easthaugh. They had broken down after adding petrol into their creamy white Fiat Bravo, and they were roughly an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal telling her spouse off for being so daft. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this goes on quite frequently in Norfolk and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he yet still had an ear bashing. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved so long and considered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Easthaugh

I am not necessarily too inclined to working weekends, and last week was no different. I had only just left home after having a superb dinner prepared by the better half, and I was en route to help a fellow because he filled the incorrect fuel in his faithful Toyota Sequoia. He was somewhere in Easthaugh so I arrived with him soon. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Thank God! I had my attention on stuff and didn't realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I created harm simply by running it?" I determined there should not be any damage and that I'd drain the fuel at once for him. As expected I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and then yet another happy client had the ability to continue on their journey without any hassle. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what tends to make working on weekends in Norfolk just a little 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.
