The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Herefordshire we have seen increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And of course be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
