The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in LN11 Postcode - Dovendale Misfueling

A rather alarmed customer phoned us from the Esso petrol station at Lincolnshire to advise us that he put unleaded into his diesel old Saab 9-2X; he wasn't quite certain how he'd managed to do it. We advised him it was absolutely no concern and quickly had our engineer with him to drain the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having taken out the incorrect fuel, he was almost immediately back behind the wheel. He told us; "I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the gentleman who arrived to carry out the fuel drain was extremely excellent - he didn't make me feel stupid."

A motorist employed in Dovendale called us after she had managed to get her wrong fueled automobile to work. She had put petrol in her diesel friend's Cadillac XLR-V and, like many prior to her, thought that she could just top up the tank with diesel and it would be okay. The car was chugging and then it stopped when she got to the the front of her office. We immediately started on the fuel drain following her call and had it sorted inside an hour whilst she was at work. She came out afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely pleased you repaired my vehicle."

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.
