The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

In Lancashire we are finding a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people being unsure of the way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most definitely never crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

If you discover yourself to be in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the practical know-how and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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:

    • 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.

  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.
