The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Oxfordshire we have encountered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the car.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And obviously never crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the car you may very likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

In the event that you find yourself in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical competence and experience to have you back on the road 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 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.
