The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do in case you’ve poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In case you discover yourself to be in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car in GL7 Postcode - Netherton Misfueling

Just had a good night of sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Saturday and we were on my way to help an older lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel dark green Mitsubishi Chariot in Netherton. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and pulled up along a backwater road on the way to see her grandchildren. I got the location punched in the TomTom and was with her inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel from the car. While I was working she told me, "I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd only just bought it a week ago right after my other car, which I owned for more than 30 years, finally died". I completed the drain and she offered me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a delightful Gloucestershire lady!

A lady living in Netherton called us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled car to work. She had put unleaded in her diesel maroon Mitsubishi Endeavor and, like plenty before her, imagined that she could basically top up the car with diesel and it would run okay. The car was chugging and then it died when she arrived at the entrance of her office. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted in an hour while she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you fixed my car."

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.
