The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you have poured AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that’s made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is definitely devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

A lady had come to a halt on a street, Racedown just after having put petrol in her diesel car. She was sobbing and very distressed as she had put £60 petrol in her diesel car. When she contacted us we attempted to calm her as well as we could, reassuring her that all would be ok.

I'm very gratified that it was easily fixable."

Wrong Fuel Assist Racedown - Wrong Fuel in Car Racedown

I had a perfect afternoon hiking during the weekend and was feeling contented the following day as I set out to help a young couple who were holidaying in Racedown. They'd pulled over after adding petrol into their dark green Audi A3, and they were about half an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the gal telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you even be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass frequently in Hampshire and that it's nothing to stress about, however he still had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate boy. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. While they drove down the road I waved so long and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

We told her that everything should be ok and that she would be ready to go very quickly.

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.
