The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in the event that you may have poured AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical composed of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is actually harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be pulled into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Contact us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BA4 Postcode - Stoney Stratton Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a rainy Sunday and we were on my way to assist an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel raspberry red Skoda in Stoney Stratton. I had been informed she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a backwater lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched in the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I turned up at the location and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel since I'd only bought it a short while back after my former car, which I'd had for in excess of twenty years, eventually died". I finished the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Somerset woman!

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It was fairly quiet up to now, and me and Paul were loafing looking at a number of old articles. That was an uncommon tranquil hour in Somerset. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the moment the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist stated: "I've only just completed my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Ferarri red Toyota Highlander Hybrid in error". I told him to let us know where the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, ending up in Stoney Stratton under half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the engine. He thanked us profusely for getting there so rapidly. While we were heading back to base we saw two ladies on the side of the street who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

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.
