It was around 9 pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and me were resting there talking about the weekend's sports, at the ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Kettlestone and filled petrol in her diesel metallic silver Mercedes SL-Class lease car by mistake. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, also that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to move the car into a safe spot and, because it was only a few minutes away from our van, we could get to the woman right away. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Norfolk done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do if you may have put AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Any time you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised competence and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
