AdBlue In your Fuel

In Berkshire we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers not knowing the way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it immediately. And absolutely do not crank the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Any time you get in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the practical skills and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Three Mile Cross - Wrong Fuel in Car Three Mile Cross

I had a terrific evening golfing during the weekend and felt contented the following morning as I was on the way to aid a young couple away in Three Mile Cross. They conked out after adding the wrong fuel into their bright red Austin Mini Cooper, and the car was approximately half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the woman telling her spouse off for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this situation goes on regularly in Berkshire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, but he still got his ear bent by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good-bye and considered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

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 VAT 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.
