The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Northamptonshire we are finding a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly don't start up the car - not even to move it from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Contact us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in LE16 Postcode - Carlton Purlieus Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and I was off to assist an old sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel mom's Peugeot Boxer in Carlton Purlieus. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station and stranded along a country lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I reached the car and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the drain she said, "Now I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I'd just bought it a few days back when my old one, which I owned for in excess of thirty years, finally broke down". I finished the drain and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Northamptonshire lady!

A young lady from Carlton Purlieus with her kids in her diesel father's Chevrolet Corsica had put £45 of petrol at the Shell petrol station. She called us weeping and very distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel and did not know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that the car would be alright and that she would be back in action in no time at all. When we arrived she was visible distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the youngsters in the back."

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 VAT 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.
