The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Norfolk we have seen a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from drivers not knowing the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the vehicle.

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

Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly don't start the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the car you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

What a great night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Saturday and I was off to assist an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel metallic red Mitsubishi Challenger in Aylmerton. She told us that she had left the filling station and pulled up along a country lane on route to see her family. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I had only acquired it a couple of days ago when my other one, which I had for in excess of twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain done and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful Norfolk lady!

It truly was an unsociable time to be awake. It was around 2am and nobody was about. It was rather quiet so far, and Ray and I were loafing around reading some old papers. This was a rare calm time in Norfolk. It was indeed that quiet that when the telephone finally rang I leaped! The person stated: "I have just ended my night shift and stupidly poured petrol in the diesel metallic silver Volvo940 by mistake". I instructed him to inform us where the vehicle was and we headed out, arriving in Aylmerton no more than 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he said many thanks for coming so promptly. While we were coming back to the depot we saw two girls on the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat.

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.
