It was just after 8 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a rainless day, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were resting there discussing the weekend's rugby rankings, ready for the sixth job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Ossington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel father's Volvo240 hire car in error. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure space and, as it was just a short distance away from the office, we could find the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and not so worried. Another fuel drain in Nottinghamshire well done in my opinion!

Out of Fuel Service
Out of fuel in Ossington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Nottinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car. They can also handle any of the typical issues that can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Nottinghamshire we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the automobile.
So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?
As the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to crank the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
In case you discover yourself to be in this scenario don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our experts have the specialised competence and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
