The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to motorists not knowing how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it asap. And of course never crank the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

If you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical competence and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Wednesday and we were en route to assist an old woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel well worn Vauxhall Monaro in Bedburn. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded along a rural lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour. I reached the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only just purchased it a week ago because my former one, which I owned for in excess of twenty five years, eventually gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant County Durham lady!

I am not actually very interested in doing the job on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the wife and kids after a fantastic dinner made for me by the missus, and I was off to sort out a gentleman who had filled the incorrect fuel in his husband's Mitsubishi Endeavor. He was somewhere in Bedburn therefore I was on scene soon. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on stuff and failed to perceive I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused some harm by driving it?" I determined that generally there shouldn't be damage and also that I'd remove the wrong fuel right away for him. Naturally I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and then yet another contented customer had the ability to continue their traveling without the hassle. The guy couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make operating on Sundays in County Durham just that tiny bit better for me!

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.
