AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people being unsure of the way to work with it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely don't start the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

In case you get in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the technical skills and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist Smethcott - Wrong Fuel in Car Smethcott

I'd had a fantastic evening hiking on my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the following working day as I set off to assist a young family holidaying in Smethcott. They had broken down after filling petrol into their modern Hyundai Accent, and they were roughly half an hour away. I got there at their position and smirked as I heard to the lady chastising her man for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass everyday in Shropshire and that it's truly absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he yet still got his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good-bye and considered what my missus would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd 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.
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.
