The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Derbyshire we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists not understanding how to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course don't turn over the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Contact us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

It truly was an unsociable hour to be awake. It was around 2:30 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It was rather uneventful so far, and Brian and I were sitting around looking through a few old magazines. That was a rare restful moment in Derbyshire. It was so relaxing that when the phone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The voice told me: "I have only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel grey Daihatsu Rocky". We got him to inform us exactly where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Highlane only half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the car and he said thank you for arriving so quickly. As we were returning to the office we saw two women on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

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.
