The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And obviously don't start the motor - not even to move it to a parking area. In the event that you have started the car you will very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

If perhaps you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no 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.
