AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Shropshire we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of people not knowing how to work with it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to crank the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Wrong Fuel Assist Sidbury - Wrong Fuel in Car Sidbury

I had a terrific day cycling on my holiday and felt cheerful the following day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Sidbury. They had stopped after filling diesel in their husband's Jeep Compass, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and smirked as I listened to the girl chastising her man for being so confused. "Just how could you even be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this goes on regularly in Shropshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Poor lad. At any rate, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove away I mouthed bon voyage and considered what my wife would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally never 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:

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.
