The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over Suffolk we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to switch on the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid 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.
