The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Hertfordshire we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the car.

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

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed 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.
