The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Somerset we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not knowing the right way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it immediately. And certainly don't turn over the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in TA6 Postcode - Sydenham Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Sunday and we were on my way to help an older lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel mustard yellow VW Touareg in Sydenham. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station and stranded on a backwater lane on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged the location into the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was working she said to me, "I'm getting fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel since I'd only acquired it a few days ago because my other one, which I'd had for about 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a precious Somerset lady!

It was early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides nearby, reached him in approximately twenty minutes.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Sydenham

A young person who had only passed his test had misfueled his metallic blue Skoda Octavia by getting unleaded in the diesel car at the station close to Sydenham. He said, "This is just the second occasion I have put fuel in my car from the time when I paid for it and I have no idea of what to do." He was also afraid since his father had only just bought him the car. He found our company on the net and so called us right away, frightened about what he needed to do. Our individual on the telephones explained to him that we could be with him within 45 minutes and to not start the car while he waited. We finished the fuel drain on his vehicle and he mentioned how astonished he was it was dealt with so speedily and without any complication whatsoever.

This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around sunrise and noone was about. It was fairly uneventful thus far, and Paul and I were sitting around looking at some old newspapers. That was a rare peaceful hour in Somerset. It was that calm that when my mobile rang it made me jump! The voice on the other end told me: "I've just concluded my evening shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in the diesel bright red Mercedes SLK-Class by mistake". We told him to let us know exactly where he was and we left, reaching him in Sydenham no more than 30 minutes later. The fuel was extracted from the car. He said thank you for coming so promptly. As we were going back home we noticed two women at the side of the street who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to change it, to their elation.

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.
