The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Buckinghamshire we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not being totally sure the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the car.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And definitely never switch on the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Stewkley Dean - Wrong Fuel in Car Stewkley Dean

I had appreciated a terrific afternoon hiking during my day off and felt pleased with myself the next day as I set off to assist a new couple who were holidaying in Stewkley Dean. They had broken down after putting petrol into their mum's Suzuki Samurai, and they were approximately an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the wife telling off her man for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this comes to pass on a regular basis in Buckinghamshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I drained all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove down the road I waved good-bye and pondered on what my missus would do to me if ever I made the same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

I am not ever excessively keen on doing work Sundays, and last week was no different. I had just left the family after eating a fantastic roast made for us by the missus, and I was off to sort out a guy after he put the incorrect petrol in his mate's Kia Sorento. He was located in Stewkley Dean and so I was on scene very quickly. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my attention on stuff and failed to grasp that I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on harm as a result of driving it?" I said there should not be any kind of problems and that I would remove the contaminated fuel right away for him. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and yet another pleased client was able to continue his ride without difficulty. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is what makes operating on weekends in Buckinghamshire just that little bit easier to me!

This was exactly the night shift. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become fairly dead thus far, and me and John were relaxing reading through some old newspapers. This was a rare calm moment in Buckinghamshire. It was in fact so quiet that the instant the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The customer told me: "I've ended my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in a precious Mazda Navajo by mistake". I instructed him to tell us where the car was located and we set off, ending up in Stewkley Dean an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the engine and he said thanks a lot for showing up so promptly. While we were coming back home we found two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed like they suffered a puncture. Obviously we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

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.
