The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Worcestershire we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not being aware of the right way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And absolutely don't turn over the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the practical know-how and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

I had appreciated a fantastic day golfing on my off day and felt cheerful the next morning as I was en route to aid a new couple away in Berrow. They pulled over after filling petrol into their metallic yellow Mercedes SL-Class, and they were approximately half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this problem occurs regularly in Worcestershire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he still had an earful. Poor guy. In any case, I drained all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove away I mouthed farewell and wondered what my missus would say to me if I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

We got a phone call from a man whose well worn Toyota Prius had conked out on a road after a misfuel. "I got the pumps mixed up and put the wrong fuel in my vehicle .

A customer working in Berrow contacted us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled car to work. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel super Jaguar and, like many before her, thought that she would be able to just fill up her tank with diesel and it'd run alright. The engine was spluttering and then it cut out when she got to the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed within 60 minutes whilst she was at work. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm very pleased you repaired 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 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.
