The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Sproxton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Leicestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the standard problems that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

In Leicestershire we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the car.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way 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. If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly don't switch on the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. If you did start the car you would probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in LE14 Postcode - Sproxton Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to help an elder woman after she had put petrol in her diesel light green Peugeot 309 in Sproxton. I'd been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded along a rural road en route to see her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I got to the location and removed the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing it she said, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I had just purchased it several days ago after my former car, which I had had for over thirty years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a delightful Leicestershire lady!

We handle your vehicle accompanied by our complete registration and coverage. We know how to deal with any vehicle models no matter whether they have been started on contaminated fuel or not.

A customer driving in Sproxton phoned us shortly after she tried to get her misfueled vehicle to her office. She had put unleaded in her diesel uncle's Volkswagen Fox and, like many people prior to her, thought that she could basically fill up her tank with diesel and it would be alright. The vehicle was coughing and then it died when she got to the entrance of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved in 60 minutes whilst she was working. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm very delighted you sorted my vehicle."

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.
