The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Wandsworth we have encountered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.

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

Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And certainly do not turn over the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Call us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of all kinds 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 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.
