AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Essex we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And obviously don't turn over the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Call us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle every type of AdBlue contamination.

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 VAT 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.
