It was after 10 pm on a Friday and while we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and me were sitting discussing the recent football, ready for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Muckley and put petrol in a diesel black Cadillac Sixty Special rental car in error. The poor lady was very troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this regrettably often happen. She was able to move the car to a protected spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and not so stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Shropshire done well in my mind!

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Shropshire we have discovered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to motorists not knowing the way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously take care not to start up the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

In case you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the technical know-how and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Muckley - Wrong Fuel in Car Muckley

I enjoyed a great day golfing on my holiday and felt delighted the following day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were holidaying in Muckley. They had conked out after filling the wrong fuel into their dad's Mercedes Sprinter 3500, and were about half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and laughed while I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing takes place on daily basis in Shropshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his wife. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyway, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted so long and pondered on what my wife would say to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

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.
