The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

In Shropshire we have noticed increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to start the engine - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Give us a call if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Badger

Now I'm not necessarily excessively keen on working on weekends, and the other day was the same. I had only just left the family after a tasty dinner cooked by the wife, and I was on the way to help a gentleman who had put the wrong petrol in his compact Lexus LS. He was only in Badger thus it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I arrived at the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I had my thoughts on other considerations and did not grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused damage by running it?" I explained there should not be harm and that I would personally get the fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I drained the fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and one more content client had the ability to carry on with his journey with no hassle. The gentleman could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what makes earning a living on weekends in Shropshire just that small bit less painful for me personally!

This really was what we call an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about sunrise and nobody was about. It was pretty quiet until now, and me and Paul were sitting about perusing a number of old magazines. It was an unusual quiet moment in Shropshire. Actually it was that calm that the moment the phone finally rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end explained: "I ended my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel mustard yellow Peugeot 2008 in error". We instructed him to let us know exactly where he was and we headed out, arriving in Badger no more than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor and he thanked us for coming so rapidly. As we were going back to the office we noticed two young women at the side of the road who seemed to have a flat. Accordingly we stopped to help 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.
