AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Shropshire we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part thanks to people not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And of course be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Any time you get in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the technical knowledge and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist Wixhill - Wrong Fuel in Car Wixhill

I appreciated a perfect day fishing during my holiday and was feeling cheerful the next working day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were away in Wixhill. They had conked out after adding the wrong fuel in their father's Volkswagen Touareg, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smirked as I heard to the woman berating her husband for actually being so confused. "How could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this problem occurs constantly in Shropshire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, nevertheless he all the same got an earful. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed so long and considered what my missus would tell me if I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

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.

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.
