AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Lewisham we have encountered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists being unsure of how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?
As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And certainly never crank the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
In case you get in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the technical knowledge and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
