It was before 10 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and I were resting talking about the recent tennis, ready for the next call for the day to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling station in Hall Garth and filled petrol in her diesel baby blue Suzuki Grand Vitara lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly affected apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected position and, since it was just a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and not so apprehensive. A job in North Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around North Yorkshire we have discovered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not understanding how to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it right away. And obviously be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

In case you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the practical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in YO19 Postcode - Hall Garth Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Monday and I was on my way to help an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel beautiful Suzuki Reno in Hall Garth. I'd been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a country lane en route to visit her family. I got her location punched in the Satnav and got there inside an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I'm getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had just acquired it a few days back because my old car, which I'd owned for over 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. What a precious North Yorkshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Hall Garth - Wrong Fuel in Car Hall Garth

I appreciated a wonderful afternoon fishing on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I was en route to aid a young family away in Hall Garth. They had broken down after filling petrol in their new Audi RS6, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked as I listened to the girl berating her hubby for being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually manage to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this problem happens on a regular basis in North Yorkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove off I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally never ever 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 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.
