The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in case you have poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s composed of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is actually damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in your tank. Once the engine has been started the AdBlue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you find yourself in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and we were en route to assist an old lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel green Kia Carens in Kingsholm. She told us that she had left the filling station and pulled up on a rural lane on route to visit her family. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I got to the destination and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel as I'd just bought it several days back after my other one, which I had used for over twenty years, finally broke down". I completed the job and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Gloucestershire woman!

This was exactly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become rather uneventful up to now, and me and John were loafing about reading through a number of old articles. It was an uncommon tranquil time in Gloucestershire. It was in fact so peaceful that when the phone eventually rang I jumped! The person on the phone stated: "I've only just ended my night shift and stupidly filled petrol in the diesel metallic yellow Cadillac Escalade ESV". We told him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was and we headed out, getting to him in Kingsholm only an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the car. He said thanks a lot for coming out so fast. As we were coming back home we noticed two women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. So we stopped to change it, to their delight.

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.
