The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Northumberland we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not understanding the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And certainly never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you have started the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

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.
