The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Derbyshire we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not understanding the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring 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. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Contact us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

We got a telephone call from a customer whose deep grey Audi Allroad had stopped on a road because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I got the pumps mixed up and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my vehicle by mistake. These guys came out and sorted out the problem after my vehicle died." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the system meticulously afterwards and the motorist could continue on with his deliveries.

This was exactly what is called the night shift. It was around sunrise and noone was about. It was rather quiet until now, and Mark and I were loafing perusing several old magazines. This was an uncommon tranquil hour in Derbyshire. It was so quiet that the instant the phone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the phone explained: "I only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel bright yellow Mercedes-Benz SL-Class". We got him to tell us where he was and we hit the road, reaching him in Crowden less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He thanked us profusely for getting there so quickly. While we were heading back home we spotted two young women at the edge of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we got out to change it, to their delight.

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.
