The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Berkshire we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it right away. And most certainly do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you end up in this position don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical competence and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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 VAT 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.
