AdBlue Contamination

All around East Sussex we have noticed increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at once. And most certainly never switch on the car - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you did start the car you would most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Contact us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Tuesday and we were on the way to help an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel mom's Volvo940 in Henleys Down. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and stranded along a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I turned up at the car and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle.

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.

• 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.
