The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Worcestershire we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the car.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of all types 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.

    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel

    • 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.
