The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Norfolk we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out immediately. And certainly don't turn over the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have the practical skills and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Daffy Green

We fairly recently had a phone call about a motorist who put the wrong fuel in his black Mitsubishi Diamante in Daffy Green. He had come to a stand-still on the street. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem till the time I conked out. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and had it working again. I was happy as a result of both how quick you were and your charges". It goes without saying that we were on-scene promptly and flushed the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank.

This was most definitely what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around sunrise and nobody was around. It was fairly quiet so far, and Brian and I were loafing around reading through a number of old magazines. This was a rare calm hour in Norfolk. It was indeed that quiet that when my mobile ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the opposite end said: "I have only just concluded my night shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel baby blue Land Rover Defender 110". We got him to let us know exactly where he was situated and we hit the road, reaching him in Daffy Green under an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the motor. He said thank you for showing up so quickly. As we were returning to base we saw two ladies at the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we pulled over to change it, 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.
