The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we have encountered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not knowing how to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely do not start up the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Henstridge Ash - Wrong Fuel in Car Henstridge Ash

I had a fantastic afternoon hiking on my afternoon off and felt contented the following day as I headed out to aid a new family who were on holiday in Henstridge Ash. They broken down after inserting diesel into their burgundy red Land Rover Freelander, and were about half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and smiled as I listened to the gal telling off her partner for turning out to be so confused. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this problem goes on continuously in Somerset and that it is nothing to fret about, even so he yet still got an earful. Unlucky guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted good-bye and considered what my missus would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd never live it down!

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.
