The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Cheshire we are finding more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most certainly don't crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Alsager - Wrong Fuel in Car Alsager

I had appreciated a fantastic day cycling on the weekend and was feeling delighted the following working day as I set off to assist a young family on vacation in Alsager. They'd broken down after filling the wrong fuel into their buff Mercedes CLK-Class, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the woman telling off her spouse for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs regularly in Cheshire and that it's actually nothing at all to be anxious about, but he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Poor lad. Anyhow, I removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some right fuel. While they drove off I waved good bye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Alsager

I am not necessarily excessively hot for working on weekends, and the other day was no different. I had only just come away from the family filled with a superb roast cooked for me by the wife, and I was on the way to assist a fellow who had filled the wrong fuel in his khaki green Mitsubishi Pajero. He was stationed in Alsager thus I was on scene before long. As I pulled up right behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I had my mind on other considerations and didn't grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created any kind of problems by driving it?" I explained that generally there probably should not be problems and also I'd get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible. Naturally I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and yet another pleased motorist was able to continue on their ride without any hassle. The guy did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is what helps make earning a living on weekends in Cheshire just that tiny bit better to me!

This really was what we call the night shift. It was close to 3am and noone was about. It had become quite quiet until now, and Ryan and I were loafing about browsing several old newspapers. This was an unusual quiet hour in Cheshire. It was that quiet that the instant the telephone rang it made me jump! The customer stated: "I've only just completed my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in a diesel mom's Honda CR-X by mistake". I told him to tell us where he was and we set off, arriving in Alsager 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the motor. He said many thanks for showing up so rapidly. As we were heading back to the office we noticed two young women on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
