The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we are discovering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely never start up the motor - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to help an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel cream Citron C4 in Clixby. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station and stranded on a backwater road en route to see her godchildren. I plugged the location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only bought it several days ago after my former one, which I had for more than twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. What a lovely Lincolnshire woman!

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.
