The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over North Yorkshire we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

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

Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not start up the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Thornton - Wrong Fuel in Car Thornton

I had enjoyed a great evening cycling on my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the next working day as I set out to help a new couple vacationing in Thornton. They had broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their well worn Citron, and they were roughly half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself as I heard to the woman telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this comes to pass continuously in North Yorkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Poor lad. At any rate, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While they drove down the road I waved bon voyage and considered what my wife would do to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car North Yorkshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Thornton

I am not too excited about doing the job on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just come away from the family after a wonderful Sunday roast made for us by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a gentleman after he had put the incorrect fuel in his light blue Seat Arosa. He was situated in Thornton and so it wasn't long before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived right behind the car and started work he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on other things and failed to grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused some harm as a result of running it?" I said that there should not be harm and that I would personally remove the fuel as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another contented customer was able to continue their traveling without hassle. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what can make earning a living on weekends in North Yorkshire just a tiny bit easier in my opinion!

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.
