The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Greater Manchester we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And obviously take care not to crank the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

If perhaps you discover yourself to be in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical skills and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

A woman from Winton with a full car of little ones in her diesel luxury Skoda Citigo had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the station. She contacted us weeping and really distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that all would be alright and that she would be back on the road very quickly. When we got there she was still upset but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked.

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 VA 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.
