The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All over North Yorkshire we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not knowing the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely never start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In case you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue contamination.

What a quality night's sleep! 7:00 on a bright Saturday and we were on the way to assist an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel spotless Ford Aspire in East Cowton. I had been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped her location in the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel since I had only just got it a short while ago when my old car, which I'd had for about thirty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a precious North Yorkshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist East Cowton - Wrong Fuel in Car East Cowton

I had appreciated a perfect afternoon fishing during my holiday and felt contented the following day as I headed out to help a young couple who were holidaying in East Cowton. They had pulled over after inserting diesel into their super BMW Z4 M, and were about half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the woman chastising her hubby for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass all the time in North Yorkshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, however he yet still got an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my wife would say to me if I made the exact same error... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

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.
