The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Greenwich we are discovering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not understanding how to to make use of (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the car.

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

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly don't switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Call us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily attend to different types of AdBlue fluid 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.
