The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!

We're able to help to refill your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill the car. They will be able to take care of any of the standard problems that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Leicestershire we have identified increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from people not knowing the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

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

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously take care not to start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. In case you have started the car you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Call us in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

This was exactly the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was about. It had become quite dead so far, and me and Paul were loafing about reading through some old articles. That was an unusual restful hour in Leicestershire. It was in fact that peaceful that the moment the phone rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the phone explained: "I concluded my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel black Audi RS 4 by mistake". I told him to let us know where he was and we headed out, arriving in Newton Harcourt an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the engine and he thanked us for arriving so quickly. As we were heading back home we saw two girls at the side of the street who looked like they suffered a puncture. Accordingly we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

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.
