The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Havering we have found a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

It truly was what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was around 2am and almost noone was stirring. It had become quite quiet up to now, and me and Brian were sitting looking at several old papers. It was an uncommon tranquil hour in Havering. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that when my mobile eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The customer on the other end stated: "I just ended my overnight shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel mint condition Volvo XC90". I instructed him to inform us just where he was and we hit the road, ending up in Corbets Tey an hour later. The fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he thanked us for getting there so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

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.
