AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Croydon we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the event that you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Call us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car in CR5 Postcode - Clock House Misfueling

What a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Tuesday and we were on my way to assist an old woman after she had put petrol in her diesel modern VW Scirocco in Clock House. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up along a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped her location straight into the Satnav and was with her within an hour or so. I got to the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she explained, "Now I'm getting fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd just purchased it a few days back after my old car, which I had for about thirty years, finally stopped working". I finished the job and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Croydon woman!

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.
