The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Staffordshire we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to use it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly do not crank the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Wrong Fuel Assist Fulford - Wrong Fuel in Car Fulford

I appreciated a great evening golfing during my holiday and felt delighted with myself the next morning as I headed out to assist a young family who were away in Fulford. They conked out after filling diesel in their light green Volkswagen Eos, and were about half an hour away. I turned up at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady telling off her spouse for turning out to be so foolish. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this happens constantly in Staffordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he still got an earful by his better half. Poor boy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed so long and considered what her indoors would do to me if I made the same mistake... I would personally never hear the end of it!

This was exactly an unsociable hour to be up. It was about 3:30am and noone was around. It had become rather dead so far, and me and Brian were relaxing reading through some old papers. That was a rare calm time in Staffordshire. It was indeed so tranquil that when the telephone rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I have completed my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in a diesel cream Audi RS6 in error". We got him to tell us just where he was and we hit the road, getting to him in Fulford under half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor. He said many thanks for coming out so promptly. While we were going back to the office we saw two girls at the side of the road who seemed to have a flat.

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.
