The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Warwickshire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously take care not to crank the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Contact us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

A young lady driving in Brandon called us shortly after she managed to get her wrong fueled car to her office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel blue Honda and, like many people prior to her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill the car with diesel and it would be no problem. The car was coughing and then it stopped when she came to the entrance of her work.

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.
