The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Surrey we have noticed more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by people being unsure of the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In case you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Sunday and we were on my way to assist an old lady after she had put petrol in her diesel burgundy red Nissan Cube in Thames Ditton. I had been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded on a country lane en route to see her family. I punched her location straight into the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I got to the destination and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle.

I completed the job and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a precious Surrey lady!

A driver from Thames Ditton with a full car of kids in her diesel racing green Ford Ranger had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the Tesco station.

We assured her that everything would be okay and that she would be in action very quickly.

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.
