AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in the event that you may have poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made from a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is certainly devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will be pulled into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to disastrous and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct every type of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in GL54 Postcode - Fossebridge Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and I was on my way to help an old sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel new-shape VW Eos in Fossebridge. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a rural lane en route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped the location into the TomTom and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I reached the destination and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she explained, "Now I'm getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I'd just acquired it several days ago when my former one, which I'd used for over thirty years, inevitably died". I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. Such a delightful Gloucestershire woman!

Consequently, if you have filled your petrol car with diesel, or petrol in your diesel car wherever in Gloucestershire, call us right now. Our qualified mechanics are available and waiting for your call.

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.
