AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we have encountered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not understanding the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the car.

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

Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely never start the car - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.

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.
