The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Tyne and Wear we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting 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 particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously do not start the motor - not even to shift it into a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
