AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not understanding how to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the car.

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

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And obviously never crank the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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 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.
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.
