The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Norfolk we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And most definitely do not crank the car - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Should you get in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the practical skills and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
