The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Lincolnshire we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it right away. And most certainly never start up the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Flixborough

I'm not necessarily too hot for doing the job on weekends, and the other day was the same. I had just come away from home after a superb dinner prepared by the wife, and I was off to deal with a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his cyan Peugeot 3008. He was situated in Flixborough and so I was on scene soon. As I arrived behind the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my mind on stuff and did not realise I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted any kind of problems through starting it?" I stated that generally there probably should not be any kind of problems and also that I would remove the contaminated fuel at once for him. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and then yet another satisfied motorist was able to continue their ride without the fuss. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Lincolnshire a little bit less painful for me!

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.
