AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we have encountered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not being aware of how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to start the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Wrong Fuel Assist Little Baddow - Wrong Fuel in Car Little Baddow

I had enjoyed a great evening hiking on the weekend and was feeling contented with myself the following day as I was en route to assist a young family who were on holiday in Little Baddow. They'd broken down after adding petrol in their dad's Peugeot, and the car was around half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you even be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this occurs frequently in Essex and that it's nothing to get worried about, but he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unfortunate boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved farewell and wondered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances 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.

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.
