The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Oxfordshire we are identifying an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not knowing the right way to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it right away. And of course never turn over the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be up. It was about 2 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had become fairly quiet up to now, and me and John were sitting around looking through several old papers. That was an uncommon peaceful hour in Oxfordshire. Actually it was that relaxing that the instant my mobile inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The voice on the opposite end explained: "I've only just finished my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my customised Renault Megane by mistake". I asked him to inform us exactly where he was and we headed out, ending up in Worsham not as much as 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us profusely for arriving so rapidly. While we were coming back home we noticed two girls at the edge of the road who looked like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, much 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.
