We're merely a telephone call away.

It was around six pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and me were relaxing there talking over the recent tennis results, prepared for the seventh telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we received the call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Mansfield and put the wrong fuel in a diesel apricot Chevrolet Cavalier hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was only a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at her without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got really wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Nottinghamshire well done in my mind!

Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They can also handle the most common troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Nottinghamshire we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly never turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In the event that you have started the car you would likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Contact us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Mansfield - Wrong Fuel in Car Mansfield

I had a fantastic evening fishing on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next day as I headed out to aid a new family away in Mansfield. They'd conked out after adding diesel in their green Lexus LFA, and they were approximately half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal telling off her husband for turning out to be so daft. "How could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this happens all the time in Nottinghamshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would ask me if I did the same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!

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.
