AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you may have put AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that’s made from a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

I appreciated a fantastic evening hiking on my day off and was feeling pleased the following working day as I headed out to help a new family holidaying in Watnall. They had broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their company's Audi Coupe GT, and they were close to an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed as I heard to the woman telling her partner off for actually being so silly. "How could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing happens on daily basis in Nottinghamshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, however he yet still had an earful by his better half. Poor chap. Anyways, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and considered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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:

    • 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.

  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.
