AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at once. And most definitely don't crank the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. If you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Blackwell - Wrong Fuel in Car Blackwell

I had enjoyed a great day hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a new family who were holidaying in Blackwell. They conked out after inserting diesel into their classic Land Rover Freelander II, and were around half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smirked while I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this situation goes on constantly in Derbyshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. As they drove away I mouthed so long and pondered on what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!

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.

• 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.
