The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the automobile.

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

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. If you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

I had a wonderful day hiking on my afternoon off and felt contented the following morning as I headed out to help a young family away in Ridge. They'd stopped after putting petrol in their father's Toyota Sequoia, and the car was around half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and laughed while I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you possibly find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this problem happens regularly in Wiltshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his wife. Poor boy. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed goodbye and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Ridge

We not long ago got a call about a guy who had put the incorrect fuel in his red Smart Forfour in Ridge. He had conked out on the street. "I couldn't believe how fast you were in sending someone out to help me when I erroneously filled my car with the wrong fuel. I'm very grateful". As you can imagine we arrived on the scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the petrol from the diesel tank.

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be up. It was close to 2:30am and almost noone was around. It had become pretty dead thus far, and Paul and I were sitting around looking at a couple of old articles. That was a rare tranquil hour in Wiltshire. Actually it was so relaxing that the moment my mobile ultimately rang it made me start! The motorist on the phone told me: "I have just concluded my night shift and incredibly put petrol in the diesel bright red Bugatti Veyron in error". I got him to let us know where the vehicle was located and we left, getting to him in Ridge not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said many thanks for coming out so promptly. As we were going back to the office we found two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they suffered a flat. So we pulled over to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
