The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Northumberland we have seen more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

As the product is mainly ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Northumberland - Petrol in Diesel Car Catcleugh

A teenager who had recently passed his test had wrong fueled his winter grey Chevrolet Suburban by getting unleaded in his diesel at the service station in Catcleugh. He said, "This is only the third occasion I have put fuel in my vehicle since I purchased it and I do not know how to handle it." He was worried since his father had only just paid for the car. He came across us on the web and so called us instantly, scared about what he needed to do. Our guy on the telephones explained to him that we would be with him in forty-five minutes and to not do anything to his car while waiting. We finished the drain on his car and he said how amazed he was it was taken care of so quickly and no problem whatsoever.

This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to dawn and almost noone was stirring. It was quite dead until now, and me and Paul were sitting around reading through some old papers. It was an unusual calm moment in Northumberland. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the instant the telephone rang it made me start! The customer on the opposite end stated: "I ended my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a canary yellow Mercedes CL-Class". I asked him to inform us where the car was and we left, arriving in Catcleugh no more than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the car and he said many thanks for coming so fast. As we were returning to base we spotted two women on the edge of the street who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

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.
