The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Shropshire we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of drivers not knowing the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And certainly don't turn over the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking area. If you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

If perhaps you find yourself in this position don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the practical knowledge and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
