The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Somerset we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at once. And certainly don't crank the motor - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

A motorist living in Tellisford called us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled vehicle to her office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark blue Mercedes Sprinter 3500 and, like plenty prior to her, assumed that she would be able to just fill up her tank with diesel and it'd run fine. The car was coughing and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her office.

She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely delighted you sorted my vehicle."

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.
