The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Northumberland we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And certainly be careful not to crank the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Marine Fuel Drains

We have successfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

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.
