A man broken down on a road in Stanghow had to have a fuel drain roughly a month back. His creamy white Subaru Outback Sport was stopped on the road after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was calm when he phoned us but somewhat worried to move his car from the road as he was causing some congestion. We were on scene within fifteen minutes as our drainer was in nearby Stanghow and had concluded his previous job. He said, "I just can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car and stopped here! My car was so spluttery I basically needed to pull over and then it died."

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over North Yorkshire we are identifying progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not knowing the way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

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

As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Give us a call if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Stanghow - Wrong Fuel in Car Stanghow

I had a great evening golfing on the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the following working day as I set off to help a young family holidaying in Stanghow. They had conked out after adding diesel in their rugged Land Rover Range Rover Classic, and the car was around half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled while I listened to the wife berating her husband for being so foolish. "Just how could you actually manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this problem goes on all the time in North Yorkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, and yet he still got an earful by his missus. I felt sorry for the lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching as they drove away I mouthed farewell and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I would never ever live it down!

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.
