The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

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.
