It was just after six pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were resting there discussing the weekend's football results, at the ready for the 8th call to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Appleton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel classic Audi TT rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected it seemed, stating "I can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this sadly happen. She managed to get the car into a secure position and, since it was only a short distance off from us, we could find the lady without delay.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in case you have poured AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. The moment the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

Whenever you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Appleton - Wrong Fuel in Car Appleton

I had appreciated a great evening fishing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a new couple on holiday in Appleton. They'd conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their dad's BMW 330, and the car was roughly an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the woman chastising her husband for being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing goes on all the time in Oxfordshire and that it's nothing at all to worry about, and yet he yet still got an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate boy. Anyhow, I drained all the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive away I waved hasta la vista and wondered what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Appleton

We not long ago had a call from a man who put the wrong fuel in his faithful Audi A5 in Appleton. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the quandary till we ground to a halt. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and got it working again. I was impressed due to both how fast you were and your charges". It goes without saying that we showed up promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all the unleaded from the diesel tank.

A lady from Appleton with a full car of children in her diesel elegant Audi A6 had put £50 of petrol at the Sainsburys service station. She phoned us crying and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and did not know what would happen to her vehicle . We assured her that everything would be alright and that she would be in action quickly. When we got there she was visible distressed but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined.

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 VAT 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.
