The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we have found a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking area. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of every type 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.
