AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout County Durham we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

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

As the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely never start up the motor - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

If you end up in this predicament don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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 VA 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.
