AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we have found more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by people being unsure of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And absolutely never start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. In cases where you have started the car you will in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Call us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Greensted Green - Wrong Fuel in Car Greensted Green

I appreciated a terrific day hiking on my holiday and was feeling contented the next morning as I was on the way to assist a young family on vacation in Greensted Green. They'd conked out after putting diesel in their uncle's Peugeot Boxer, and the car was approximately half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smirked as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing occurs on a regular basis in Essex and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate guy. Anyway, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed good-bye and thought about what my missus would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!

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 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.
