The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!

We are able to come to re-fill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will be able to take care of the usual problems that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And most certainly never start the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. Assuming you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Contact us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
