AdBlue Contamination

In Gloucestershire we have encountered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the automobile.

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

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And definitely take care not to start the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in GL53 Postcode - Cowley Misfueling

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Wednesday and I was off to assist an old lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel khaki green Subaru Outback in Cowley. I had been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up along a country lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I got to the location and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel because I had only got it a couple of days ago when my other one, which I'd had for about 25 years, finally stopped working". I got the drain done and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Gloucestershire woman!

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.
