The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you may have put AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made from a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you end up in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the technical expertise and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hole-in-the Wall

I am not necessarily so inclined to running on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just left the family following a fantastic roast cooked by the wife, and I was en route to deal with a guy who had put the wrong petrol in his daughter's Toyota Yaris. He was situated in Hole-in-the Wall therefore I was with him quickly. As I drove up behind the car and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other stuff and did not grasp that I've put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created any harm simply by driving it?" I explained truth be told there probably should not be problems and that I'd drain the fuel at once for him. Naturally I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and so yet another happy motorist could continue on his trip without the fuss. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is what makes operating on Sundays in Herefordshire that little bit easier for me personally!

A woman from Hole-in-the Wall with a full car of kids in her diesel grey Mazda B2500 had put £42 of petrol at the filling station. She phoned us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never wrong fueled before and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We reassured her that everything should be alright and that she would be back ready to go very quickly. When we got there she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the little ones in the back."

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.

Typical Misfuel Signs and symptoms:
