The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Greater Manchester we are noticing a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

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

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking area. In case you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Contact us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in WN6 Postcode - Beech Hill Misfueling

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to help an elder sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel bright red Fiat Nuova 500 in Beech Hill. She told us that she had left the petrol station and pulled up along a backwater lane on route to visit her family. I plugged the location in the TomTom and got there within an hour or so. I reached the destination and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel because I had only got it a short while ago because my old one, which I had owned for about twenty years, eventually broke down". I completed the job and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Greater Manchester woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Beech Hill - Wrong Fuel in Car Beech Hill

I had appreciated a great day golfing on my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the following working day as I set off to assist a new couple holidaying in Beech Hill. They'd broken down after filling the wrong fuel in their grass green Ford Aspire, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed as I heard to the lady berating her partner for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing occurs frequently in Greater Manchester and that it's really nothing to be anxious about, but he yet still got an ear bashing. Poor boy. Anyways, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and considered what my wife would do to me if I made the exact same mistake... I would personally never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Greater Manchester - Petrol in Diesel Car Beech Hill

Now I am certainly not too interested in running Sundays, and a while back was no different. I had only just left the family after eating a wonderful roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a fellow who had put the wrong fuel in his rugged Mitsubishi. He was only in Beech Hill therefore it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I drove up behind the car and stepped out he explained to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my concentration on other considerations and did not ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol car. Have I caused any kind of harm because of starting it?" I determined that generally there should not be harm and that also I would drain the fuel immediately for him. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so one more satisfied motorist had the ability to continue his trip with no bother. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that makes carrying out work on weekends in Greater Manchester that tiny bit less painful for me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Beech Hill - Fuel Rescue Beech Hill

A lady from Beech Hill with a full car of children in her diesel rugged Mercedes C-Class had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Shell station. She phoned us sobbing and very distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel and didn't know what would happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that everything should be fine and that she would be up and running soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the little ones 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 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.
