It was before 8 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Ryan and I were sitting there discussing the rugby, ready for the next call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Signet and put petrol in her diesel boss' Fiat Bravo rental car by mistake. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately can happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the motel she was staying in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off contented and less concerned. A fuel drain in Oxfordshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking bay we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue Contamination

In Oxfordshire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely take care not to switch on the car - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If you have started the car you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Should you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical competence and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no 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:

  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.
