The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Greater Manchester we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the car.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since the product is mainly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at once. And of course don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you will most likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Contact us in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct every type of AdBlue fluid 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 VA 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.
