AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Northumberland we are noticing more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the car.

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

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at once. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.
