The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Oxfordshire we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of motorists not knowing the right way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to start the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

We carried out a wrong fuel retrieval job on the drive of a spectacular residence in Didcot recently. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to virtually reach home when my car cut out." Our fuel drainer went out, regardless that it was pretty late at night, and performed a standard fuel drain and purge on the brand new BMW 330 to everyone's satisfaction.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Didcot - Fuel Rescue Didcot

A woman driving in Didcot called us shortly after she had tried to get her wrong fueled vehicle to her office. She had put unleaded in her diesel partner's Cadillac XLR and, like many people before her, imagined that she could basically fill the vehicle with diesel and it'd run okay. The car was chugging and then it cut out when she came to the entrance of her work. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed inside one hour whilst she was at the office. She came outside when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely happy you sorted 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.
