The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Greater Manchester we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not understanding how to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And certainly take care not to switch on the engine - not even to move it off the pump. If you have started the car you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Call us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Very common fuel drain tales in Collyhurst:

Wrong Fuel in Car Greater Manchester - Petrol in Diesel Car Collyhurst

We completed a wrong fuel removal job near a spectacular house in Collyhurst not so long ago. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and managed to virtually reach home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, despite the fact that it was rather late at night, and completed a full fuel drain and purge on the uncle's Toyota Yaris to everyone's satisfaction.

This was certainly what we call the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was stirring. It was rather quiet thus far, and me and Ray were relaxing perusing some old articles. This was an uncommon tranquil moment in Greater Manchester. It was in fact so relaxing that the moment the phone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the other end told me: "I've only just concluded my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in a diesel clean white Cadillac Seville". I got him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was and we hit the road, reaching him in Collyhurst no more than 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleared from the engine and he said thank you for getting there so rapidly. As we were coming back home we noticed two women on the edge of the street who seemed like they had a puncture. Accordingly we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
