The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Derbyshire we have found a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not knowing the way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at once. And of course be careful not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Phone us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle all types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DE5 Postcode - Denby Bottles Misfueling

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Wednesday and we were en route to assist an old woman after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel friend's Subaru Outback Sport in Denby Bottles. I'd been informed she drove away from the filling station and was broken down on a country lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I reached the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she said to me, "I have been becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it several days back when my former car, which I had used for more than 25 years, finally died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Derbyshire lady!

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.
