The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Norfolk we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to people not being totally sure the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the car.

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

As the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to every type of AdBlue liquid 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.
