The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Oxfordshire we are identifying progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And definitely be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical expertise and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

This was exactly what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about sunrise and almost noone was about. It was rather uneventful up to now, and me and Mark were loafing around looking through a number of old magazines. That was a rare calm moment in Oxfordshire. It was in fact so tranquil that the instant my mobile eventually rang I jumped! The motorist told me: "I only just ended my night shift and foolishly put petrol in my khaki green Lexus by mistake". We instructed him to tell us where exactly he was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Forest Hill not as much as 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He said thanks a lot for getting there so rapidly. While we were returning to base we found two girls at the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up and helped them change it, to their elation.

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 VAT 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.
