AdBlue In your Fuel

In Dorset we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely never switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. Assuming you did start the car you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

I had been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down along a country road en route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd just purchased it a few days back right after my former car, which I had owned for over 30 years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain completed and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Dorset 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.
