AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Oxfordshire we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not being aware of how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily handle every type of AdBlue fluid 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 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.
