The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around East Sussex we have discovered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not knowing the way to use it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And of course never start up the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In case you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Should you get in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and I was en route to assist an old lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel boss' Fiat Doblo in Guestling Thorn. She told us that she had left the petrol station and broken down in a rural road on the way to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was working she explained, "Now I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel since I'd only bought it a few days back after my other one, which I had used for about twenty years, inevitably died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a pleasant East Sussex woman!

This was certainly the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had been quite dead thus far, and me and Brian were sitting about reading a couple of old articles. That was an unusual quiet time in East Sussex. It was in fact so relaxing that when the telephone rang I leaped! The customer explained: "I've only just completed my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in the grass green Volkswagen Jetta III". We told him to let us know where exactly he was situated and we left, arriving in Guestling Thorn not as much as half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us for arriving so fast. While we were heading back to the office we found two young women on the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. Obviously we pulled up to change it, 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.
