The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do if you may have poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made out of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is certainly disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be pulled into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Give us a call if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
