It was after 9 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were resting talking over the weekend's sports, waiting around for the sixth call to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Whelp Street and filled petrol in a diesel mustard yellow Dodge Avenger lease car. The poor lady was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to get the car into a secure spot and, because it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to find the woman quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the motel she was living in. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and not so worried. One more job in Suffolk done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we have encountered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly don't start up the car - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you would likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Should you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the technical knowledge and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist Whelp Street - Wrong Fuel in Car Whelp Street

I had enjoyed a great afternoon cycling during my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I set out to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Whelp Street. They had broken down after adding diesel into their elegant Nissan Maxima, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the wife telling her hubby off for being so foolish. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this takes place on daily basis in Suffolk and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Poor guy. Anyhow, I drained the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I would personally never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Whelp Street

Now I'm not actually too enthusiastic about carrying out work weekends, and the other day was no different. I had just departed home following a wonderful Sunday roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was on the way to help a gentleman who had put the incorrect fuel in his maroon Lexus LFA. He was located in Whelp Street so I arrived there almost immediately. As I arrived behind the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my mind on other considerations and did not realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I inflicted any kind of harm because of running it?" I determined generally there shouldn't be any damage and that also I'd get the contaminated fuel drained at once. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and then one more happy customer was able to carry on with their trip with no difficulty. He did not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what helps make operating on weekends in Suffolk just a tiny bit less painful for me!

A customer from Whelp Street with a full car of kids in her diesel mint green Peugeot 307 had filled her vehicle with £50 of petrol at the Tesco petrol station. She called us crying and very worried as she had never wrong fueled previously and did not know what would happen to her car . We assured her that everything should be okay and that she would be on the road in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children on board."

Ordinary Petrol in Diesel Warning signs:

This is a list of common wrong fuel symptoms or signs:

  • Lack of engine power
  • Car dying, spluttering and / or hiccuping
  • Problems starting the engine
  • Excessive smoke

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.
