The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Croydon we are discovering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part thanks to people not knowing the right way to work with it (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to different types of AdBlue contamination.

This was what we call an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to dawn and almost noone was about. It had been fairly dead thus far, and Paul and I were loafing about browsing several old articles. That was an unusual quiet hour in Croydon. Actually it was so calm that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer said: "I've just ended my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel red Nissan Cube by mistake". We asked him to let us know exactly where the vehicle was and we hit the road, getting to him in Norwood New Town under 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the engine and he said thanks a lot for showing up so fast. While we were coming back home we spotted two women at the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up 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.
