The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have identified a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the technical competence and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

What a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Wednesday and we were off to help an elder lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel light blue Toyota Solara in Furness Vale.

As I was working she said, "I am getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel seeing that I had only got it a few days ago because my old car, which I had for more than twenty five years, inevitably broke down".

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.
