AdBlue In Diesel

In Buckinghamshire we are encountering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from people not being totally sure how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As the product is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it immediately. And definitely do not switch on the car - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical skills and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SL2 Postcode - Farnham Royal Misfueling

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and I was on my way to help an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel customised Volkswagen in Farnham Royal. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station and broken down on a country lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour. I got to the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was working she explained, "I have been becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel because I'd only just bought it a week ago after my old one, which I had used for in excess of 25 years, finally gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. What a pleasant Buckinghamshire woman!

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.
