The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Lancashire we are identifying a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And obviously don't switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In case you have started the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
