The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we have found increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by people not being totally sure the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
