The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Essex we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

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

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And obviously do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you would most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

If perhaps you discover yourself to be in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.

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.
