The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Suffolk we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to motorists being unsure of how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most certainly be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Phone us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

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.
