AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Herefordshire we are encountering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And obviously take care not to start the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

A woman from Ashperton with her youngsters in her diesel company's Vauxhall Signum had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the filling station. She contacted us crying and very worried as she had never wrong fueled and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle . We assured her that the car would be fine and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we got there she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the kids on board."

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.
