The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we are finding progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And of course be careful not to switch on the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

If you end up in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have the practical knowledge and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Monday and I was on the way to help an older lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel matte black Range Rover Sport in Lullington. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was pulled up on a backwater lane along the way to see her grandchildren.

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.
