The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Norfolk we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Should you get in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the technical knowledge and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Wednesday and I was off to assist an old sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel racing green Cadillac Catera in Bunwell Hill. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and stranded along a backwater lane along the way to visit her family. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I am getting rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only just got it a few days ago right after my previous car, which I'd had for about twenty five years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. What a pleasant Norfolk woman!

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.
