The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Surrey we are identifying more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And most certainly do not crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Call us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Outwood

I am not necessarily excessively excited about doing work on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I'd only just come away from home after eating a superb dinner prepared for me by the better half, and I was off to deal with a gentleman because he filled the incorrect fuel in his expensive Audi A5. He was stationed in Outwood therefore it wasn't a long time before I got to him. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and stepped out he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on something else and didn't perceive I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I created any kind of problems through driving it?" I stated that truth be told there should not be any kind of problems and also that I would personally drain the wrong fuel immediately. As expected I drained the fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and so yet another happy customer was able to continue on his traveling without any subsequent fuss. He could not stop thanking me, and that is actually what helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Surrey just that small bit less painful to me!

A woman from Outwood with her kids in her diesel silver Hyundai Elantra had filled her car with £42 of petrol at the BP service station. She contacted us weeping and very distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and did not know what would happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that everything should be okay and that she would be back in action quickly. When we arrived she was still upset but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the little ones in the back."

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.
