The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Dorset we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And of course never crank the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

If perhaps you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical competence and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Tuesday and we were on my way to assist an elder woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel metallic blue BMW 325 in Winterborne Herringston. She informed us that she had left the filling station and was pulled up on a rural lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel because I'd only bought it a week ago because my other car, which I used for in excess of twenty five years, eventually broke down". I got the drain done and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Dorset lady!

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.
