AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Oxfordshire we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not knowing the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is 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, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And certainly don't turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In the event that you have started the car you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct all types 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.

• 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.
