AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Lincolnshire we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially due to motorists not understanding how to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest 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 prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And definitely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Wrong Fuel Assist Great Ponton - Wrong Fuel in Car Great Ponton

I had enjoyed a terrific afternoon fishing during the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I headed out to assist a young couple on holiday in Great Ponton. They had conked out after filling petrol in their apple green Mercedes-Benz R-Class, and the car was about an hour away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl telling off her hubby for being so stupid. "Just how could you even find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this problem goes on everyday in Lincolnshire and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, nonetheless he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky chap. In any case, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I waved good bye and pondered on what my wife would ask me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
