The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out right away. And absolutely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. If you did start the car you will likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Give us a call if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Wednesday and we were off to assist an old lady after she put petrol in her diesel burgundy red Mercedes-Benz E-Class in Rowland. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and stranded on a backwater lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. While I was working she told me, "I have been getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I had only purchased it a short while ago when my old one, which I'd had for about twenty years, finally died". I completed the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a lovely Derbyshire lady!

We were contacted by a gentleman whose shiny Dodge Challenger had stopped on a road after a misfuel. "I mixed up the pumps and put the wrong fuel in my vehicle . You came out and sorted out the matter right after my car quit." We drained the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the engine meticulously and the gentleman could go on with his deliveries.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was roughly dawn and noone was about. It was rather quiet up to now, and John and I were relaxing looking through a couple of old papers. This was an uncommon quiet time in Derbyshire. Actually it was indeed that quiet that when the telephone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The customer stated: "I only just ended my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in my work's Vauxhall Bedford in error". We told him to inform us just where he was and we set off, ending up in Rowland 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for getting there so promptly. While we were heading back to base we noticed two women at the edge of the road who looked like they had a puncture. So we stopped to help them change it, much 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.
