Wrong Fuel in Car Goldstone, Shropshire

Local Call-Out and Roadside Repair in Shropshire

Petrol in your diesel car or truck in Goldstone? Thanks for visiting Wrong Fuel SoS. Call us and enquire exactly how we can help to get you back on the road once again.

It was just after 9 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and me were resting there talking over the recent golf results, waiting for the 6th call that day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Goldstone and put petrol in her diesel aunt's BMW 760 lease car. She was fairly affected apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we could reach the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and less anxious. One more fuel drain in Shropshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Shropshire we are encountering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously take care not to start up the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you will probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

In the event that you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

A lady driving in Goldstone contacted us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to her office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel precious Renault Alliance and, like many before her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill her vehicle with diesel and it would run fine. The vehicle was coughing and then it stopped when she came to the entrance of her office. We soon went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it fixed within an hour or so while she was at work. She came outside soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very happy you fixed my car."

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.

Familiar Misfueling Warning signs:

Here is a list of typical wrong fuel symptoms or signs:

  • Decrease in vehicle power
  • Motor conking out, chugging or coughing
