The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Staffordshire we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you would very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Should you find yourself in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the specialised knowledge and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and I was on my way to help an older woman after she put petrol in her diesel red Bentley Continental in Coalpit Hill. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down in a country lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I punched her location in the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I got to the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I am getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I'd just acquired it a few days back when my previous car, which I had owned for in excess of twenty five years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Staffordshire lady!

This was an unsociable time to be up. It was close to 2 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had been fairly uneventful so far, and Ryan and I were loafing reading a few old magazines. This was an uncommon peaceful time in Staffordshire. Actually it was so peaceful that when the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The voice stated: "I've only just finished my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in a apple green Citron Zara". I instructed him to tell us where exactly he was situated and we left, reaching him in Coalpit Hill an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor and he thanked us for arriving so rapidly. While we were returning to the office we spotted two girls on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we got out and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
