The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Dorset we have found an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers being unsure of how to use it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And certainly do not start the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Should you get in this predicament don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the practical know-how and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
