AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Buckinghamshire we have identified a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the automobile.

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

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely never start the motor - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of 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 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.
