The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Gloucestershire we have encountered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not understanding the way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As the product is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And of course take care not to turn over the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. If perhaps you have started the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Contact us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

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.

Normal Misfueling Signs and symptoms:

Here is a list of standard wrong fuel symptoms or signs:
