The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hertfordshire we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not knowing how to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it asap. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
