It was just before seven pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing there talking over the recent rugby results, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Norton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel gorgeous Mazda626 rental car by mistake. The poor lady was rather affected it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things do happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing at.

Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your automobile.

AdBlue Contamination
In Worcestershire we have found more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?
As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And of course be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking area. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.
If you find yourself in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to dawn and nobody was about. It had been pretty uneventful so far, and me and Paul were sitting about browsing a few old newspapers. It was an unusual calm time in Worcestershire. Actually it was so quiet that the moment the phone rang I leaped with surprise! The voice on the opposite end told me: "I just finished my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel aunt's Fiat 500 in error". We asked him to tell us where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Norton under an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the engine and he said thanks a lot for showing up so quickly. As we were heading back to the office we found two women on the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, to their delight.

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.
