She was fairly agitated it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this do happen.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we are identifying more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to use it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at once. And definitely take care not to start up the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to different types of AdBlue 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.

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.
