The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Essex we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

As the product is primarily deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly do not start the motor - not even to move it to a parking bay. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Any time you find yourself in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Commonplace Petrol in Diesel Warning signs:

Here's a list of common wrong fuel signs and symptoms:

  • Diminished vehicle power
  • Vehicle cutting out, spluttering or even hiccuping
  • A tough time starting the motor
  • Increased fumes

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.
