The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container lying in the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Oxfordshire we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't turn over the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Call us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RG9 Postcode - Stoke Row Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to assist an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel burgundy red Land Rover Defender 110 in Stoke Row. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I reached the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm getting rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only got it a few days back right after my former one, which I'd used for over twenty years, eventually died on me". I got the drain done and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. What a delightful Oxfordshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Stoke Row

Now I am not ever that hot for working on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd only just left the family after a lovely roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was off to deal with a man who filled the wrong fuel in his modified Daihatsu Charade. He was only in Stoke Row therefore I was with him soon. As I arrived behind the car and started work he explained to me "Praise God! I had my mind on other considerations and failed to grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought on harm as a result of starting it?" I determined that truth be told there should not be problems and also I'd get the contaminated fuel drained right away for him. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and then another satisfied client could carry on with his trip without the difficulty. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that can make operating on Sundays in Oxfordshire a tiny bit less painful 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 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.
