The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lincolnshire we are finding an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the way to use it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And of course do not turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical expertise and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
