The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Shropshire we are discovering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to people not being aware of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most certainly never turn over the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

She had filled petrol in her diesel stylish Audi A6 and, like many people before her, imagined that she would be able to simply fill her car with diesel and it would be okay. The engine was spluttering and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and got it repaired within 60 minutes whilst she was at the office. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm very glad you fixed my car."

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.
