The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lincolnshire we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially due to motorists not being aware of how to use it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And definitely be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Any time you get in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the practical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

We fairly recently got a call about a businessman who put the wrong fuel in his navy blue Mercedes E-Class in Croxton. He had conked out on the road.

As you can imagine we got there punctually and purged the engine after flushing the unleaded from the diesel tank.

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.
