The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

What you should do in case you have put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, bringing about serious and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you find yourself in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the technical skills and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

A lady from Upper Shirley with her little ones in her diesel metallic silver Peugeot 206 had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Tesco filling station. She contacted us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what would happen to her car in doing so. We told her that all should be okay and that she would be up and running quickly.

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.
