They will be able to take care of the typical troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Nottinghamshire we are noticing more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not being aware of the way to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most certainly never crank the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Any time you find yourself in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the technical competence and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
