The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And of course take care not to crank the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you did start the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Canholes - Wrong Fuel in Car Canholes

I had enjoyed a fantastic day cycling on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the following day as I was en route to aid a young couple away in Canholes. They had broken down after adding petrol in their red Mitsubishi Precis, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the girl telling off her hubby for being so confused. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this goes on all the time in Derbyshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he in spite of everything got an earful. Poor lad. Anyways, I extracted all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. As they drove away I mouthed so long and wondered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would personally never hear the end of it!

"After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't discover the predicament till the time I stopped working. You took the wrong fuel from my car and got it working . I was happy because of both how fast you were and your value for money". Needless to say we showed up promptly and flushed the engine after draining all the unleaded from the diesel tank.

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.
