The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Norfolk we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since the product is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And definitely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. If you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

In case you find yourself in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have the technical skills and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
