AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Cambridgeshire we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to to make use of (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And of course never crank the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

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.
