The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Staffordshire we have identified more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not knowing the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In the case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And obviously do not crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

If you get in this position don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

I was impressed as a result of both your call-out time and your pricing". Of course we arrived on the scene punctually and flushed the engine after flushing the unleaded from the diesel tank.

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.
