The poor thing was pretty troubled it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Surrey we have noticed progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously never start up the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the technical competence and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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 VAT 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.
