The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

In Shropshire we have encountered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly never crank the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle every type of AdBlue contamination.

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.
