The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Derbyshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Derbyshire we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course do not switch on the car - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Call us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix different types of AdBlue contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in DE45 Postcode - Robin Hood Misfueling

The owner of a brother's Audi Coupe GT was regretful that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle when he got onto the road and it spluttered and broke down. "I've gone and put petrol in my diesel car," is what he said to us the initial time he rang. To be honest, when he initially telephoned us he said he wanted to shop around, but he phoned us back before long because our price and on-scene times were the most appropriate. Naturally, our technician had him back carrying out his deliveries well within the period we'd cited.

It matters not whether your car is brand-new or old, we possess the ability, experience AND tools to make sure that your vehicle is drained and flushed of all the contaminated fuel at once, so you are able to carry on with your journey with minimal interruption.

He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top.

He said he would be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it drained immediately.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Robin Hood

It's no fun being stranded in a vehicle running on the incorrect fuel in the middle of the road. Recently a customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (dirty red Mercedes SLK55 AMG) in Robin Hood had literally this kind of problem: "Unfortunately I incorrectly put unleaded in my diesel car like a complete fool. I was so distressed about the wrong fuel in my car that I was in tears. However I shouldn't have worried because you were fantastic in resolving my problem."

A driver from Robin Hood with a full car of children in her diesel father's Renault Twingo had put £50 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She called us sobbing and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what could happen to her vehicle . We told her that all would be fine and that she would be ready to go soon. When we got there she was still upset but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the children in the back."

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.
