It was before 7 pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a rainless day, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were sitting commenting on the golf results, ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Romanby and put petrol in a diesel customised Fiat rental. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, because it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away contented and a lot less worried. A misfuel correction in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you may have put AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made from a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, bringing about devastating and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Call us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DL7 Postcode - Romanby Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and we were off to help an old lovely lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel green Ford Escort in Romanby. She told us that she had left the filling station and pulled up along a country road on route to visit her family. I plugged the location in the Satnav and got there inside an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she explained, "I am getting rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel because I'd only bought it a few days ago right after my previous one, which I had used for about twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely North Yorkshire lady!

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.
