The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over North Yorkshire we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

If you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a bright Sunday and I was on the way to assist an elder lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel black BMW 6 Series in Low Grantley. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station and was pulled up on a country lane along the way to see her godchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and was with her within 60 minutes. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I had only purchased it a short while ago when my former one, which I'd had for over thirty years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a pleasant North Yorkshire woman!

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.
