Eventually we received the call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Darley and put petrol in a diesel cream Ford Aspire rental in error. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe I have ruined the car!

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in case you may have poured AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Wrong Fuel Assist Darley - Wrong Fuel in Car Darley

I appreciated a perfect afternoon fishing on my holiday and felt contented the following working day as I set out to aid a new couple who were away in Darley. They conked out after filling the wrong fuel into their trusty Porsche Carrera GT, and were close to an hour away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman berating her partner for being so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this goes on quite frequently in Shropshire and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, however he still got an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyway, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I shouted so long and considered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the same blunder... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Darley

I'm not excessively keen on working weekends, and last week was no different. I had only just departed home after a wonderful lunch prepared by the wife, and I was on my way to deal with a man after he put the incorrect fuel in his bright red Chevrolet Suburban. He was stationed in Darley so it wouldn't be long before I reached him. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on stuff and didn't perceive I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I caused any damage as a result of running it?" I revealed that generally there should not be any kind of problems and that I would personally get the wrong fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. As expected I removed the fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and yet another satisfied motorist could carry on with his traveling without any fuss. He did not stop thanking me, and that is what makes carrying out work on Sundays in Shropshire just a small bit easier to me!

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.
