The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Somerset we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most certainly be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Call us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BS40 Postcode - Havyatt Green Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Saturday and I was en route to help an older woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel gorgeous Ford Club Wagon in Havyatt Green. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a rural lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I got to the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she said, "I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I'd only just acquired it a few days ago because my other car, which I had owned for about twenty years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Somerset woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Havyatt Green

Now I am certainly not very excited about doing work weekends, and the other day was no different. I had only just come away from home filled with a magnificent Sunday roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was on my way to help a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his green Land Rover Defender 110. He was located in Havyatt Green hence I arrived there rapidly. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my concentration on other considerations and did not perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought about any kind of problems through driving it?" I revealed there should not be problems and also I would personally get the wrong fuel drained as soon as possible for him. Obviously I drained the fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and thus yet another satisfied customer was able to continue his trip with no hassle. He did not stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make working on Sundays in Somerset just that little bit better for me!

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.
