The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Bexley we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to shift it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

It truly was an unsociable time to be up. It was around 3:30 in the morning and noone was about. It was fairly uneventful up to now, and Ray and I were relaxing looking at a couple of old newspapers. That was an uncommon quiet time in Bexley. It was indeed so peaceful that when the phone ultimately rang I jumped! The motorist said: "I only just ended my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in the diesel baby blue Isuzu i-Series". We told him to inform us where he was and we headed out, reaching him in Bexley no more than an hour later. The fuel was taken out from the car. He said thank you for getting there so rapidly. As we were coming back to the depot we found two girls on the side of the road who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.

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.
