The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Hertfordshire we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely take care not to start up the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

In case you get in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have the technical skills and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

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.
