The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we are finding a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the car.

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

Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most definitely be careful not to crank the car - not even to shift it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you will very likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Greenside

We fairly recently had a call about a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his husband's Hyundai Tiburon in Greenside. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "It was amazing how speedy you people were in sending somebody out to help me after I mistakenly filled my diesel car with petrol. Thanks".

This was certainly an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was about. It had become rather uneventful so far, and me and Mark were relaxing looking through a few old newspapers. It was an unusual calm hour in Derbyshire. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The person on the other end explained: "I've just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in a mate's Toyota Sienna in error". I got him to inform us where the car was located and we headed out, reaching him in Greenside no more than an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He thanked us for arriving so rapidly. While we were coming back to the depot we spotted two girls at the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over to help them change it, to their delight.

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.

    • 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.
