The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Oxfordshire we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not being aware of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And of course take care not to start the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. In case you have started the car you will likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical skills and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

I had a terrific day cycling on my holiday and felt satisfied the following day as I headed out to aid a young couple on holiday in Radley. They had pulled over after adding diesel in their bright yellow Audi R8, and the car was close to an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and smiled as I heard to the wife chastising her partner for being so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this situation takes place everyday in Oxfordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, even so he all the same got an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted so long and thought about what my wife would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I would never ever live it down!

"After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem till the time we conked out. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and had it working again. I was pleased with both how quick you were and your rates". Needless to say we appeared punctually and purged the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was close to sunrise and nobody was around. It had become rather quiet thus far, and me and Ray were relaxing looking through a number of old magazines. That was an uncommon restful hour in Oxfordshire. Actually it was in fact that calm that the instant my mobile finally rang I jumped! The motorist on the opposite end explained: "I only just ended my overnight shift and incredibly put petrol in my diesel bright yellow Ford by mistake". We instructed him to inform us just where the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, ending up in Radley not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming so fast. While we were coming back home we saw two girls at the side of the street who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.

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.
