The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Wiltshire we have identified more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And definitely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Contact us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct different types of AdBlue fluid 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.
