The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Essex we have found a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the car.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely take care not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

In the event that you find yourself in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the specialised know-how and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

I'd had a perfect day golfing during my off day and felt contented with myself the next working day as I set out to help a young family who were holidaying in Woodend. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their wife's Toyota Sienna, and were about half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled as I heard to the wife telling her man off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this problem takes place on daily basis in Essex and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he still got an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. Anyhow, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I waved goodbye and thought about what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the very same mistake... I would personally never live it down!

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.
