The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Dorset we have found a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people not understanding how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And most definitely don't turn over the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Call us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Gore - Wrong Fuel in Car Gore

I'd had a great afternoon cycling on the weekend and felt cheerful the following working day as I headed out to assist a young couple on holiday in Gore. They had broken down after adding petrol into their company's Renault Clio, and were around an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling off her spouse for being so silly. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this takes place on a regular basis in Dorset and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, but he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate boy. At any rate, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
