The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout North Yorkshire we have identified a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people being unsure of the way to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of all types 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.
