The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over West Sussex we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not understanding how to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it right away. And most certainly don't crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Donnington

I'm not necessarily too hot for doing the job on Sundays, and last week was no different. I had only just left home following a tasty Sunday roast made by the wife, and I was en route to help a fellow because he put the wrong petrol in his faithful Volvo740. He was somewhere in Donnington so it wasn't long before I reached him. As I drove up at the rear of the car and started work he told me "Thank God! I had my attention on stuff and failed to perceive I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I inflicted some problems by starting it?" I revealed that truth be told there probably should not be problems and that also I would personally get the fuel drained quickly for him. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in some correct fuel, and yet another happy customer could continue their journey without fuss. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this helps make operating on weekends in West Sussex just a small bit better for me personally!

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.
