The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the vehicle.

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

Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And absolutely do not start the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the event that you have started the car you may likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid 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.
