The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you’ve poured AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be pulled into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

I appreciated a great afternoon fishing on my afternoon off and was feeling delighted the next morning as I headed out to help a new couple who were vacationing in Lyng. They had broken down after adding diesel in their matte black Suzuki Grand Vitara, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the girl berating her partner for being so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing goes on continuously in Norfolk and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, however he all the same got his ear bent. Unlucky chap. In any case, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and wondered what my wife would tell me if ever I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Lyng

We a few weeks ago had a phone call about a guy who put the wrong fuel in his silver Bentley Continental in Lyng. He had conked out on the road. "After putting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't realize the issue till the time it broke down. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and got it functioning once again. I was amazed by both how quick you were and your prices". Obviously we were on-scene promptly and purged the engine after flushing all the unleaded from the diesel tank. When he arrived our fuel drainer said the driver was scowling, but was grinning his face off when we finished.

This was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was around 2am and almost noone was stirring. It was quite quiet thus far, and Mark and I were loafing around reading through a couple of old articles. This was a rare peaceful time in Norfolk. Actually it was so calm that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me jump! The motorist told me: "I only just ended my evening shift and foolishly filled petrol in a compact Chrysler Voyager by mistake". I asked him to let us know exactly where he was situated and we set off, ending up in Lyng under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for showing up so promptly. While we were returning home we found two girls on the side of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

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.
