The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Caldecote (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Northamptonshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up the car. They are also able to take care of any of the common troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Northamptonshire we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to motorists being unsure of how to use it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly be careful not to start the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. If you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
