The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Tyne and Wear we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

In case you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the technical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
