The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hampshire we have seen increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by people not knowing how to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking spot. Assuming you did start the car you will likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

If perhaps you discover yourself to be in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the technical skills and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
