The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Warwickshire we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by drivers not being totally sure how to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course don't start the motor - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

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.
