The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Oxfordshire we have seen a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not knowing the right way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely take care not to start up the car - not even to move it from the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in OX14 Postcode - Milton Heights Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a warm Sunday and I was en route to assist an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel racing green Cadillac Fleetwood in Milton Heights. I had been told she had left the filling station and was stranded in a rural road en route to see her godchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I turned up at the car and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "I am getting rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I had only bought it a week back after my previous one, which I had used for over twenty five years, finally died". I completed the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a lovely Oxfordshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Milton Heights

Now I am not so keen on doing work on weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd just left the wife and kids following a tasty roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was on my way to help a guy who had filled the wrong fuel in his mint condition VW GTI. He was only in Milton Heights so it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my thoughts on other things and didn't realise I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on any damage by running it?" I explained generally there should not be any damage and that also I'd personally drain the wrong fuel as soon as possible for him. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and another satisfied motorist could continue on their journey without any subsequent hassle. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make working on Sundays in Oxfordshire just that small bit less painful for me!

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.
