The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hounslow we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

In case you find yourself in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the specialised skills and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
