The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Lincolnshire we have found increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the car.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And definitely be careful not to start the motor - not even to shift it into a parking place. If perhaps you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all types of AdBlue 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.
