The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Lincolnshire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly do not start the engine - not even to move it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Any time you get in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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 VA 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.
