AdBlue In Your Diesel
All around Richmond upon Thames we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not understanding how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.
So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?
As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And obviously don't turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you will most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

This was most definitely an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to 2am and almost noone was stirring. It had been quite uneventful until now, and me and Brian were relaxing reading several old newspapers. This was an uncommon tranquil hour in Richmond upon Thames. It was so peaceful that when the phone rang it made me start! The voice stated: "I have only just finished my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel mum's Volvo C70 in error". I asked him to tell us exactly where the car was and we headed out, getting to him in Twickenham an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He said thanks a lot for coming out so promptly. While we were going back home we found two girls at the side of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

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.
