We're only a call away.

It was close to five pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated discussing the weekend's sports, prepared for the next job for the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Denwick and put the wrong fuel in her diesel navy blue Cadillac CTS lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was very distressed apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, and also that such things do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we were able to arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and much less concerned. A job in Northumberland well done in my books!

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


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Northumberland we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not knowing the way to to make use of (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. In the case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out right away. And obviously take care not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you end up in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have the practical know-how and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NE66 Postcode - Denwick Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Wednesday and I was en route to help an older lovely lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel Ferarri red Peugeot Boxer in Denwick. I'd been told she had left the petrol station and pulled up on a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped the location in the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I turned up at the location and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing it she explained, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd just acquired it several days back because my previous car, which I'd owned for about 25 years, finally died on me". I completed the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful Northumberland woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Denwick - Wrong Fuel in Car Denwick

I had enjoyed a great day hiking during my holiday and was feeling contented the following morning as I set off to aid a new family on holiday in Denwick. They broken down after adding the wrong fuel into their metallic green Dodge Ram, and were approximately half an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife telling off her hubby for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this goes on constantly in Northumberland and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, even so he still got his ear bent. Poor lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted farewell and considered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I'd under no circumstances 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.
