The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Lancashire we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue 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 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.
