The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout West Sussex we have found increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly don't crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

I got her location punched straight into the TomTom and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I have been becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel seeing that I had just acquired it a few days back right after my previous car, which I used for more than 25 years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant West Sussex woman!

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.
