AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hampshire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly never switch on the car - not even to shift it to a parking area. In case you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

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.
