It was about 6 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were sitting talking over the recent rugby results, ready for the 6th call to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Saltmarshe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel son's Toyota MR2 lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, and that such things sadly happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was only a few miles from where we were, we could find the customer quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was residing at. Although we got really drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off contented and much less worried. Another fuel drain in East Riding of Yorkshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout East Riding of Yorkshire we are identifying an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And obviously never turn over the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you have started the car you will probably need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Saltmarshe

I am not actually so excited about running on Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I had just departed the family after eating a superb Sunday roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow who put the incorrect fuel in his metallic silver Audi A7. He was somewhere in Saltmarshe therefore it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. As I drove up at the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Praise God! I had my mind on stuff and didn't perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I caused some damage as a result of starting it?" I determined generally there probably should not be any problems and also that I would personally drain the contaminated fuel immediately for him. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus another delighted client had the ability to carry on with their traveling without any subsequent difficulty. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what can make earning a living on Sundays in East Riding of Yorkshire that little bit better for me personally!

This was certainly what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 2:30 in the morning and nobody was about. It was fairly quiet until now, and me and John were relaxing reading a few old newspapers. It was an unusual tranquil time in East Riding of Yorkshire. It was that peaceful that the moment the phone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The voice on the opposite end said: "I've concluded my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my burgundy red VW Passat". We told him to inform us where exactly he was and we hit the road, reaching him in Saltmarshe not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the motor and he said thanks for coming so promptly. As we were returning to the office we spotted two young ladies at the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Obviously we stopped to change it, 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.
