AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lancashire we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly take care not to switch on the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Barrowford - Wrong Fuel in Car Barrowford

I'd had a wonderful evening golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling cheerful the next working day as I set off to help a young couple who were holidaying in Barrowford. They had stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their trusty Citron C4, and they were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so silly. "How could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this takes place all the time in Lancashire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, even so he still got his ear bent. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved so long and considered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I would personally never hear the end of it!

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 VA 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.
