The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in the event that you have poured AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of all types of AdBlue 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 VAT receipt.

  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.
