Petrol in your diesel car in Moortown? You've found yourself in the perfect people. We are here to aid you in this time of need and get you running once again with our dedicated fuel drain service.
It was close to 10 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing commenting on the recent footy, ready for the seventh call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Moortown and put the wrong fuel in her diesel apricot Mazda hire car. The poor thing was pretty agitated it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we could reach the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away contented and much less anxious. One more job in Lincolnshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination
All over Lincolnshire we are finding more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.
Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car?
Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
In the event that you find yourself in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in LN7 Postcode - Moortown Misfueling
A customer had broken down on a street, Moortown just after having put petrol in her diesel car. She was weeping and very distressed as she had put £45 petrol in her diesel car. As she contacted us we tried to calm her as best we could, telling her that it would be fine. By the time we got to her she was not aggrieved any more and was fascinated in observing our fuel drainer do the fuel drain on her red Audi V8. Later she said: "My vehicle is akin to my baby, I recently bought it and thus it especially horrified me that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm gratified that it was easily repairable."

This was most definitely what is called the night shift. It was around 2 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It had been rather dead up to now, and Ray and I were sitting browsing a number of old newspapers. It was an uncommon tranquil time in Lincolnshire. It was so peaceful that the instant my mobile inevitably rang I jumped! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I finished my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in my uncle's Mazda RX-7 by mistake". We asked him to tell us just where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Moortown not as much as half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he said many thanks for showing up so rapidly. As we were coming back home we spotted two young women at the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
