The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In East Sussex we have identified progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to people not knowing the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the vehicle.

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

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And of course never switch on the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you may probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

In case you discover yourself to be in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the technical expertise and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

What a fantastic night of sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Tuesday and we were off to assist an older woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel metallic blue Nissan 350Z Roadster in Windmill Hill.

While I was doing the drain she explained, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel since I'd only bought it several days back after my previous car, which I had for in excess of twenty years, finally died on me". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. Such a delightful East Sussex woman!

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.
