The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Nottinghamshire we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of people not understanding the way to use it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the vehicle.

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

Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And obviously be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Awsworth

Now I am certainly not overly keen on running on Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just left the family filled with a superb roast made by the missus, and I was off to deal with a gentleman because he put the wrong fuel in his metallic yellow Daihatsu Charade. He was stationed in Awsworth therefore I arrived with him soon. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Thank the Lord! I foolishly had my attention on something else and didn't grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted any problems because of running it?" I explained generally there should not be any damage and that also I'd personally drain the contaminated fuel quickly for him. As expected I drained the fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some correct fuel, and then yet another delighted client could continue their trip without hassle. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what tends to make operating on weekends in Nottinghamshire just that tiny bit easier for me personally!

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 VAT 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.
