The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout East Riding of Yorkshire we have discovered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not understanding the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously don't switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Any time you find yourself in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised know-how and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

The owner of a dark blue Mercedes Sprinter 2500 was sorry that he put petrol in his diesel automobile when he got as far as the road and it coughed and ceased.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Kilham

Now I'm not very inclined to working on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just come away from the wife and kids following a superb Sunday roast prepared by the wife, and I was on the way to help a fellow after he had filled the wrong fuel in his uncle's Fiat. He was only in Kilham so it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I had my mind on stuff and didn't perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused damage simply by starting it?" I revealed there should not be damage and also that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained at once. Naturally I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and thus one more delighted client could continue on his journey without any difficulty. The man could hardly stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make earning a living on weekends in East Riding of Yorkshire that little easier for me!

A lady living in Kilham called us as soon as she managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to her office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel rust red Toyota Camry and, like many people prior to her, believed that she could just top up the tank with diesel and it'd be alright. The vehicle was coughing and then it died when she reached the entrance of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and got it repaired inside one hour while she was at the office. She came outside when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm really relieved you fixed my vehicle."

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.
