AdBlue Contamination

All over Herefordshire we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by people not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously do not turn over the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix every type of AdBlue fluid 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.
