The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to start the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would most likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

In the event that you find yourself in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical skills and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

I had a great afternoon cycling on my afternoon off and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I set off to aid a new family on vacation in Great Chishill. They'd pulled over after inserting diesel into their mom's Peugeot 207, and the car was close to an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the wife chastising her man for turning out to be so silly. "How could you even manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this occurs constantly in Cambridgeshire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, but he still got an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good bye and considered what my wife would tell me if I did the very same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

This was the graveyard shift. It was close to 2:30am and almost noone was around. It had been fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Paul were relaxing browsing a number of old magazines. It was an uncommon calm time in Cambridgeshire. It was so relaxing that the instant the phone ultimately rang I jumped! The customer explained: "I've finished my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in a diesel modified Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500". I told him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was and we hit the road, ending up in Great Chishill an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the motor and he thanked us for showing up so promptly. While we were heading back home we spotted two young ladies on the side of the street who seemed to have a puncture. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
