The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Somerset we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not being aware of how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In the event that you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And absolutely do not turn over the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Horton

Imagine being stranded in a car contaminated with the incorrect fuel halfway down the road. One of our last customers who filled her diesel car with petrol (mustard yellow Hyundai Sonata) in Horton ran into literally this type of issue: "Your fuel drain guy moved my motor from the live lane. He fixed it and had it functioning again in just thirty-five minutes. Highly recommended."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Horton - Fuel Rescue Horton

This was what is called the night shift. It was roughly 2am and hardly anyone was about. It had become quite quiet up to now, and me and Ryan were sitting around looking through a number of old articles. That was a rare restful hour in Somerset. It was indeed so quiet that the moment the telephone inevitably rang it made me jump! The person on the phone said: "I have finished my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel mint condition Hyundai Sonata by mistake". I instructed him to let us know just where he was located and we headed out, ending up in Horton not as much as an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said thanks a lot for showing up so quickly. While we were returning to the depot we found two ladies at the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we got out to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
