AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Shropshire we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of people not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

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

Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly don't start the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the car you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SY5 Postcode - Westbury Misfueling

What a good night of sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Saturday and I was en route to assist an old sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel metallic silver Mercedes Sprinter 2500 in Westbury. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up in a country lane along the way to pay a visit to her family. I punched the location in the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing the work she explained, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I had only just got it a short while ago right after my old one, which I'd used for more than thirty years, inevitably died on me". I got the job done and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Shropshire lady!

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.
