The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Surrey we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And absolutely do not turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Whenever you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no 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.
