The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Herefordshire we have identified increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding the right way to use it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously never switch on the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

If you get in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Comberton - Fuel Rescue Comberton

This was most definitely what is called an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly dawn and hardly anyone was about. It was fairly uneventful up to now, and Ray and I were relaxing reading a few old magazines. This was an unusual quiet hour in Herefordshire. Actually it was indeed that relaxing that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end told me: "I've just finished my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel canary yellow Toyota Land Cruiser in error". We told him to inform us where exactly he was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Comberton no more than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine. He thanked us for coming so fast. While we were returning to base we found two ladies on the side of the street who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we stopped 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.
