Before long we had the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Harmans Cross and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel compact Mercedes R-Class rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was pretty troubled apparently, crying "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Dorset we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And of course be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

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.
