It was around five pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a dry day, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were seated there talking over the recent football, ready for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Oxhill and put petrol in a diesel deep grey Hyundai Genesis rental car. She was quite irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things unfortunately happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady swiftly.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Warwickshire we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And certainly do not start the motor - not even to move it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix different 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 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.
