The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Lincolnshire we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not knowing how to use it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly never switch on the car - not even to shift it to a parking place. If you did start the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in LN8 Postcode - Heathfield Misfueling

A relatively alarmed driver called us from the Total petrol station at Lincolnshire to inform us that he put unleaded in his diesel metallic yellow Renault Twingo; he wasn't quite sure how he'd done it. We advised him it was absolutely no situation and quickly had our specialist out to him to drain the incorrect fuel from his car. Having taken out the contaminated fuel, he was almost immediately back behind the wheel. He told us; "I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car. And the man who arrived to do the fuel drain was extremely very good - he didn't make me look ridiculous."

Wrong Fuel Assist Heathfield - Wrong Fuel in Car Heathfield

I had a perfect day golfing on my off day and felt cheerful with myself the following day as I headed out to assist a young couple away in Heathfield. They had pulled over after putting the wrong fuel into their brother's Ford Focus ST, and the car was approximately an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the gal telling her man off for being so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this problem takes place on daily basis in Lincolnshire and that it's nothing at all to stress about, and yet he in spite of everything got an earful by his wife. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some right fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved goodbye and thought about what my wife would say to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Heathfield

Imagine grinding to a halt in a car running on the wrong fuel on the street. One of our most recent customers who filled her diesel car with petrol (modified Jeep Cherokee) in Heathfield encountered exactly that kind of difficulty: "You may already know I mistakenly put petrol in my diesel car last week. I was so stressed about the wrong fuel in my car that I was actually in tears. Fortunately I shouldn't have worried because you were outstanding in dealing with the problem."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Heathfield - Fuel Rescue Heathfield

A motorist working in Heathfield contacted us shortly after she tried to get her wrong fueled vehicle to her office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel company's Volkswagen Touareg and, like many prior to her, thought that she could just top up her tank with diesel and it'd run alright. The car was chugging and then it cut out when she got to the entrance of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved within an hour or so whilst she was in the office. She came outside later on and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely relieved you repaired my car."

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.
