The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Hertfordshire we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out right away. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In case you have started the car you will likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Any time you get in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have the technical expertise and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist St Ippolyts - Wrong Fuel in Car St Ippolyts

I had appreciated a wonderful afternoon hiking on my holiday and felt contented with myself the following morning as I set out to assist a new family who were on vacation in St Ippolyts. They had broken down after putting petrol in their apple green Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class, and they were around half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this problem occurs on a regular basis in Hertfordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he all the same got an earful. Poor lad. Anyways, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I made the same error... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
