AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we have discovered more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not understanding the right way to use it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the automobile.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely don't start the engine - not even to move it into a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

If perhaps you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the technical skills and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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 VA 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.
