The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Northumberland we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to start the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Northumberland - Petrol in Diesel Car Melkington

I wouldn't like being stranded in a vehicle filled with the wrong fuel in the middle of the street. We had a customer who put the wrong fuel in her car (dark green Subaru Outback Sport) in Melkington suffered from precisely that type of nightmare: "You probably know that I wrongly filled my car with the wrong fuel a few days ago. I was so bothered about the wrong fuel in my car that I was actually in tears. Fortunately I needn't have worried since you were exceptional in dealing with the problem."

This was exactly what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was close to sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had been fairly uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were loafing around browsing a few old newspapers. It was a rare quiet moment in Northumberland. Actually it was in fact that peaceful that when the telephone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The voice on the other end stated: "I've concluded my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel friend's VW Jetta by mistake". We asked him to tell us where exactly the car was and we left, getting to him in Melkington only an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He thanked us for getting there so fast. As we were heading back home we spotted two ladies on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we stopped and helped them change it, much 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.
