The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Somerset we have noticed more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not understanding how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the car you will probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you find yourself in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the specialised knowledge and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no 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 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.
