The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Suffolk we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And most certainly never switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you would most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call if you are a victim 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 customer working in Lound called us after she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to the office. She had put unleaded in her diesel boss' BMW 6 Series and, like plenty prior to her, thought that she could simply top up the vehicle with diesel and it'd be fine. The engine was chugging and then it died when she got to the the front of her office. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and got it resolved within an hour while she was at work. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely relieved you repaired 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.
