In due time we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Almeley Wootton and put petrol in a diesel modern Audi Coupe GT lease car. She was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I can not believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, and that these things happen.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Herefordshire we have noticed progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not knowing the right way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at once. And of course be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In case you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Call us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of different types 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.
