The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Suffolk we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not knowing the right way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

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

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely don't start the engine - not even to move it into a parking spot. In case you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Chedburgh

Now I am not ever too interested in carrying out work weekends, and last week was the same. I'd only just left the family after eating a magnificent lunch prepared for us by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a guy who put the incorrect petrol in his metallic blue BMW Alpina B7. He was stationed in Chedburgh hence it wouldn't be long before I reached him. As I arrived right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I had my concentration on other considerations and failed to realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I created any problems through starting it?" I determined truth be told there should not be any harm and also that I would drain the wrong fuel at once for him. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled it with some correct fuel, and thus another happy client had the ability to continue their traveling without difficulty. The man did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is what can make carrying out work on Sundays in Suffolk just a tiny bit better to 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 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.
