The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

In North Yorkshire we have encountered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to start up the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. If you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Should you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the specialised skills and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no 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.
