The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All around County Durham we have identified a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to drivers being unsure of the way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle 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 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.
