The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we are identifying increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not knowing the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously do not start the car - not even to move it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

In case you end up in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the technical competence and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Monkton Heathfield

Now I am not very excited about running Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I had just left the wife and kids following a magnificent lunch prepared by the wife, and I was on my way to assist a guy who had put the wrong fuel in his mum's Mitsubishi 3000GT. He was situated in Monkton Heathfield thus it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I arrived right behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I had my mind on other things and failed to grasp that I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused any harm by simply running it?" I explained that generally there should not be any harm and that also I'd drain the wrong fuel as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and so one more pleased motorist had the ability to continue his traveling without any bother. The gentleman couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what tends to make working on weekends in Somerset just a tiny bit better to me!

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.
