The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Hampshire we are identifying an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And most certainly be careful not to start up the car - not even to shift it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
