The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lancashire we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And of course never turn over the car - not even to shift it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will correct all kinds 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 VA 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.
