The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have seen increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not understanding how to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the vehicle.

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

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly be careful not to start up the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

If perhaps you discover yourself to be in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the practical expertise and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
