They are also able to deal with the normal problems which might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Staffordshire we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never start the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

In case 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 skills and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
