AdBlue In your Fuel

All over County Durham we are finding a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And definitely do not start the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In case you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

What a great night of sleep! 7:00 on a warm Saturday and we were on my way to assist an elder woman after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel modified Renault Traffic in Sunny Brow. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was pulled up on a country lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I punched her location into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel because I had only purchased it a few days ago right after my former car, which I'd owned for about twenty years, finally stopped working". I got the drain done and she gave me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a delightful County Durham lady!

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.
