The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Somerset we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you end up in this predicament don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have the practical competence and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BA7 Postcode - Hadspen Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an older lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel deep grey BMW X6 M in Hadspen. I had been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a rural road en route to visit her godchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel since I had only acquired it a couple of days back when my former one, which I had used for about twenty five years, eventually stopped working". I got the job done and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Somerset lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Hadspen - Wrong Fuel in Car Hadspen

I had a wonderful day hiking during my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Hadspen. They stopped after adding the wrong fuel into their silver Jaguar, and the car was around an hour away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the lady telling off her partner for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on on daily basis in Somerset and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he all the same got his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I drained out all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed so long and wondered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hadspen - Fuel Rescue Hadspen

It truly was the night shift. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had been rather uneventful so far, and me and John were loafing looking at several old papers. It was a rare restful hour in Somerset. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that when the telephone finally rang it made me jump! The person explained: "I've only just ended my evening shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in the boss' Mazda B2600 by mistake". I instructed him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was located and we headed out, arriving in Hadspen only half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us profusely for coming out so promptly. While we were going back to the office we found two women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we got out to help them change it, much to their delight.

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 VA 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.
