Before long we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Cooksmill Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel red Mazda MX-5 rental by mistake. She was quite distressed it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!"

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we are discovering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And absolutely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
