It was just after 6 pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated there discussing the recent rugby, at the ready for the sixth job to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Friezeland and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel bright white Peugeot 508 lease car in error. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that these things sadly happen.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Nottinghamshire we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not knowing how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And definitely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Phone us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

A woman working in Friezeland contacted us shortly after she managed to get her misfueled automobile to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel mint condition Cadillac STS-V and, like countless prior to her, imagined that she could basically top up the tank with diesel and it would be fine. The vehicle was chugging and then it died when she came to the entrance of her work. We quickly started on the fuel drain following her call and had it sorted in an hour or so whilst she was at work. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm very happy you fixed my car."

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.
