The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And obviously never crank the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Phone us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

This was an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly 2 in the morning and almost noone was about. It was quite dead until now, and me and John were relaxing perusing some old papers. It was a rare restful hour in Lincolnshire. It was that tranquil that when my mobile finally rang I jumped with surprise! The customer said: "I've finished my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the elegant Skoda Citigo". We asked him to let us know where he was situated and we left, ending up in Langholme no more than an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car and he said thanks for getting there so quickly. While we were heading back home we saw two women at the side of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. Accordingly we got out to change it, to their delight.

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.
