The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Bexley we have discovered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to people being unsure of the way to work with it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And obviously don't start up the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

It truly was what is called the graveyard shift. It was around 3:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It had become fairly uneventful up to now, and me and Ray were sitting browsing a few old papers. That was a rare tranquil time in Bexley. Actually it was in fact that peaceful that the instant my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The voice on the phone stated: "I just completed my overnight shift and incredibly poured petrol in the silver Peugeot 307 by mistake". I got him to let us know just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, getting to him in Welling not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the vehicle. He said thanks for coming so quickly. As we were heading back to the office we spotted two young women on the side of the street who looked like they had a flat. Accordingly we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
