The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Northumberland we are finding a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not being totally sure how to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously be careful not to crank the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel Assist Walwick - Wrong Fuel in Car Walwick

I had a terrific day hiking during my afternoon off and felt pleased the following day as I headed out to aid a new couple on holiday in Walwick. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their modified Mercedes CLK-Class, and the car was roughly an hour away. I showed up at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the girl telling her husband off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass frequently in Northumberland and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he yet still had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyways, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good-bye and wondered what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would 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.
