AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Shropshire we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And most certainly don't turn over the motor - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can 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.

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.
