The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In North Yorkshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

In the event that you get in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the practical skills and working experience to get you back on the road 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.
