In due time we got a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Rockley and filled petrol in a diesel matte black Volkswagen Fox lease car. The unfortunate thing was quite distressed it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle!

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do if you have put AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s composed of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue is going to be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily attend to all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Rockley

I'm not actually too keen on doing work weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just left the wife and kids after eating a lovely Sunday roast made by the wife, and I was off to help a man after he filled the incorrect fuel in his son's Volkswagen Passat. He was only in Rockley therefore it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. As I pulled up behind the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I had my thoughts on stuff and did not ascertain I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about any kind of harm as a result of running it?" I determined there shouldn't be any problems and also that I'd drain the fuel as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and yet another happy motorist had the ability to continue their traveling with no fuss. The guy could not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make operating on weekends in Wiltshire just that small bit better for me personally!

A lady from Rockley with a full car of youngsters in her diesel burgundy red Mazda RX-7 had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the station. She called us sobbing and very worried as she had never wrong fueled previously and did not know what would happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that everything would be okay and that she would be in action soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the little ones on board."

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.
