Inevitably we had the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in West Heath and filled petrol in a diesel uncle's Cadillac Eldorado rental. She was pretty affected it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was running a diesel!"

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Cheshire we are identifying a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

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

Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously do not switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking bay. Assuming you have started the car you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct different types of AdBlue contamination.

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.

• 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.
