At the end of the day, our technician will be taking a tank-full of contaminated fuel they have drained from a few cars that will need to be disposed of. Nowadays, there is a serious concern that such fuel could severely damage the environment or even pollute the water supply so you are not permitted to casually pour it anywhere.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

You should know that wrong fuel is not the only problem which can make your engine run abnormally. The existence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your car produce a lot of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, like damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in the event of wrong fuel.

The same set of symptoms may also be caused by somebody attempting to put AdBlue directly into the fuel tank of a diesel engine. The correct way to add it is via a separate tank and automatic dosing system built into the car.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

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.
