The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Northamptonshire we have discovered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And absolutely never start the car - not even to move it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Whenever you get in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

We had a call from a young man who had put the wrong fuel in his uncle's BMW 645 in Scaldwell. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After adding unleaded in my diesel car I didn't recognise the issue before we ground to a halt. You took the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning again. I was pleased by both how swift you were and your rates". Naturally we arrived on the scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival the fuel drainer said the driver was raging, but was grinning his face off when we finished.

A woman driving in Scaldwell phoned us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to her office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel grass green Nissan 350Z Roadster and, like many people prior to her, imagined that she would be able to simply top up the car with diesel and it would run no problem. The car was coughing and then it died when she arrived at the the front of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain following her call and got it repaired in 60 minutes whilst she was working. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm really glad you fixed my vehicle."

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 VAT 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.
