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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you’ve poured AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s composed of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Norbury - Wrong Fuel in Car Norbury

I appreciated a great afternoon fishing during my off day and was feeling cheerful the next morning as I set out to assist a young couple on holiday in Norbury. They broken down after filling petrol in their apple green MINI Countryman, and they were around an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal telling off her spouse for being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass frequently in Croydon and that it's really absolutely nothing to stress about, but he still had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I drained all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my missus would ask me if I made the very same error... I would personally never hear the end of it!

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.
