The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do if you may have put AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made out of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is certainly harmful to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the AdBlue will be injected into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SP7 Postcode - Shaftesbury Misfueling

What a great night's sleep! 7:30 on a bright Wednesday and I was off to assist an older sweetheart who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel black Lexus IS-F in Shaftesbury. I had been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a backwater lane en route to see her grandchildren. I plugged the location into the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "I am becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel since I had only just got it several days back after my former one, which I used for in excess of 25 years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a lovely Dorset woman!

I enjoyed a perfect day golfing during my off day and was feeling cheerful the next morning as I set out to assist a new family vacationing in Shaftesbury. They had pulled over after putting diesel into their white Mazda B2600, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this situation comes to pass continuously in Dorset and that it's really absolutely nothing to fret about, nonetheless he all the same had an earful. Poor chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted so long and pondered on what my wife would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

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 VA 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.
