We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue Contamination

In Essex we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly due to motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the automobile.

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

As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

If you get in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the specialised competence and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong 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.
