The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Essex we are finding a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And definitely take care not to crank the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix all types of AdBlue 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 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.
