AdBlue In Diesel

In Hampshire we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people being unsure of the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

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

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely do not turn over the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix all kinds 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.
