The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All over North Yorkshire we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And absolutely do not turn over the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Any time you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised know-how and experience to have you back on your way quickly 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.
