The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Sussex we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely take care not to switch on the car - not even to shift it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Contact us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Tales from our Shipley staff:

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Shipley

A youngster who had only recently passed his driving test had misfueled his aunt's BMW Z3 by having petrol in the diesel at the filling station close to Shipley. He said, "This is just the third occasion I have filled up my car from the time when I purchased it and I don't know how to proceed." He was afraid as his dad had just bought him the car. He located our company on the web and so called it without delay, afraid about what he needed to do. Our guy on the telephones told him that we would be with him within 45 minutes and to not touch his vehicle while he waited. We did the fuel drain on his vehicle and he said how amazed he was it was addressed so quickly and without complication whatsoever.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was roughly 3am and almost noone was around. It was quite uneventful up to now, and Paul and I were loafing reading some old magazines. This was an unusual quiet hour in West Sussex. It was in fact so relaxing that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The person on the opposite end said: "I've ended my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a buff Isuzu Amigo". I got him to let us know exactly where he was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Shipley less than an hour later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle. He said thanks for arriving so fast. As we were heading back to the office we found two women on the edge of the street who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
