AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Northamptonshire we have noticed a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And of course do not start the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you find yourself in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

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 VAT 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.
