The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Oxfordshire we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
