The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Suffolk we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not being aware of how to work with it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Cowlinge

I'm not actually that inclined to running Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids filled with a superb roast made for me by the missus, and I was on the way to assist a fellow after he had filled the wrong petrol in his son's Seat Ibiza. He was located in Cowlinge thus I was with him quickly. As I arrived at the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my thoughts on stuff and did not ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought about any problems simply by running it?" I determined generally there probably should not be harm and also that I would personally get the wrong fuel drained immediately. As expected I removed the fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and thus one more contented motorist could continue on their journey without fuss. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is what tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Suffolk just that little bit less painful for me personally!

A motorist living in Cowlinge phoned us after she managed to get her misfueled vehicle to the office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel mint green Cadillac Brougham and, like countless before her, assumed that she could just top up her vehicle with diesel and it would run fine. The engine was chugging and then it died when she arrived at the entrance of her office. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it repaired in an hour while she was at work. She came out soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely relieved you fixed my car."

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.
