In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Woodside and put the wrong fuel in her diesel pristine Fiat Doblo rental by mistake. The poor thing was fairly affected by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this can happen.

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In County Durham we are encountering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out right away. And absolutely don't turn over the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

If you end up in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised know-how and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no 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 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.
