The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Leicestershire we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of how to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Contact us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue 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.
