The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!

We will come to refill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your automobile. They will be able to handle the normal issues which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Herefordshire we are noticing a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being aware of how to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course don't switch on the car - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

In the event that you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant Herefordshire woman!

I turned up at their location and laughed while I heard to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so confused.

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.
