The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in the event that you’ve poured AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made out of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is definitely devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the AdBlue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

Call us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

This was certainly what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around dawn and almost noone was about. It had become fairly quiet until now, and me and Paul were sitting reading through a number of old articles. This was an uncommon calm moment in Hampshire. Actually it was so tranquil that when the phone eventually rang it made me jump! The customer said: "I've concluded my overnight shift and stupidly put petrol in the diesel dark green Mercedes Sprinter in error". I asked him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was located and we hit the road, arriving in Herriard less than an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said thanks a lot for coming so rapidly. While we were heading back to the office we found two ladies on the side of the road who looked like they suffered a puncture. As a result we got out to change it, much 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.
