The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Oxfordshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to people not knowing the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the vehicle.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And certainly never switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all types of AdBlue liquid 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.
  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.
