The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hounslow we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not understanding how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly never start up the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

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.
