The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Somerset we are discovering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people being unsure of the right way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most certainly take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In case you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Whenever you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the technical competence and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Thrupe

Now I'm not overly interested in running Sundays, and last week was the same. I'd only just come away from the family filled with a fantastic roast cooked by the missus, and I was off to deal with a man who put the incorrect fuel in his trusty Volkswagen Golf. He was only in Thrupe so I was on scene almost immediately. Just as I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my attention on other things and did not grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted some problems through starting it?" I explained that there should not be problems and that I'd personally remove the fuel quickly. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled it with the suitable fuel, and thus yet another pleased client had the ability to carry on with their journey without any bother. He did not stop thanking me, and that helps make working on weekends in Somerset just a little bit easier in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Thrupe - Fuel Rescue Thrupe

This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was around. It had been pretty uneventful thus far, and Ray and I were loafing about reading through a couple of old articles. This was a rare tranquil hour in Somerset. Actually it was indeed that quiet that when my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The person on the opposite end explained: "I have only just completed my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in a cyan BMW 525 by mistake". I instructed him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, ending up in Thrupe only an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he said thanks for getting there so rapidly. As we were coming back to base we saw two women at the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we stopped and helped 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.
