The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Herefordshire we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not knowing the way to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And most definitely take care not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

This was an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly 3:30 in the morning and nobody was about. It had been fairly uneventful up to now, and Paul and I were sitting around looking at several old newspapers. This was an unusual tranquil time in Herefordshire. Actually it was that peaceful that the moment the phone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the opposite end stated: "I have just finished my night shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the dark blue Isuzu Ascender". I instructed him to tell us just where he was and we set off, ending up in Ludstock not as much as an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he said thanks for arriving so rapidly. While we were heading back to the office we saw two girls at the edge of the highway who seemed like they suffered a puncture. As a result we got out 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 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.
