The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Norfolk we are encountering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

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

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it asap. And of course never start up the car - not even to move it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in PE32 Postcode - Godwick Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Saturday and I was on my way to help an old sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel bright red Suzuki Reno in Godwick. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a backwater lane on route to see her grandchildren. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel as I'd only acquired it a few days back right after my former car, which I owned for about twenty years, inevitably died". I got the drain completed and she presented me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a precious Norfolk lady!

We performed a wrong fuel removal exercise near a beautiful residence in Godwick recently. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to virtually arrive at home when my car cut out." Our technician went out, despite the fact that it was quite late at night, and performed a standard fuel drain and purge on the dark blue Mazda MX-5 to everyone's satisfaction.

A young lady from Godwick with a full car of children in her diesel elegant Peugeot 508 had put £42 of petrol at the BP station. She contacted us crying and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what would happen to her vehicle . We assured her that everything should be alright and that she would be back on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the little ones on board."

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.
