The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have seen an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not being aware of the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And of course be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

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

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

I'd had a fantastic evening cycling on the weekend and felt contented the next working day as I set off to aid a young couple on vacation in East Barkwith. They had broken down after putting petrol in their father's Chevrolet Silverado, and the car was roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the lady telling off her hubby for actually being so foolish. "How could you even manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this situation happens quite frequently in Lincolnshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, but he yet still got his ear bent by his missus. Poor chap. Anyhow, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved so long and thought about what my missus would do to me if I did the very same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
