The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

In Somerset we are finding a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not knowing the right way to use it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course take care not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you will probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

It truly was what is called the night shift. It was about 2 in the morning and noone was around. It had become quite dead thus far, and Mark and I were loafing about reading a couple of old articles. That was an unusual quiet time in Somerset. It was indeed so peaceful that when the telephone finally rang I leaped with surprise! The customer stated: "I just ended my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel rust red Ford Taurus in error". We asked him to inform us where the car was and we set off, getting to him in Chardleigh Green an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the engine. He thanked us profusely for getting there so fast. While we were returning home we noticed two girls on the edge of the street who looked like they had a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over to 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 VA 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.
