The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in case you may have poured AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BA2 Postcode - Tunley Misfueling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a warm Sunday and we were on the way to help an elder sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel super Volkswagen GLI in Tunley. I had been told she drove away from the petrol station and pulled up on a country lane along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I plugged the location into the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and drained the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd just got it a week ago right after my other one, which I'd had for more than thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the job and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely Somerset lady!

This really was the night shift. It was around sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had been pretty dead until now, and Paul and I were sitting reading through several old papers. This was an uncommon calm time in Somerset. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that the instant my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The motorist explained: "I only just finished my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel friend's BMW 8 Series in error". I asked him to inform us where exactly he was situated and we left, arriving in Tunley only 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming so promptly. As we were going back home we spotted two young ladies on the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a puncture. Obviously we pulled over and helped them change it, to their delight.

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 VA 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.
