AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we are discovering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not knowing the way to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.

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

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously take care not to start the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.

We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

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.
