AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have seen progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people being unsure of the right way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

In case you find yourself in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the specialised skills and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist Thorngrove - Wrong Fuel in Car Thorngrove

I'd had a fantastic day hiking during the weekend and was feeling delighted the next working day as I set off to assist a new family who were on vacation in Thorngrove. They pulled over after adding diesel into their metallic red Saab 9-4X, and they were approximately an hour away. I got there at their position and smirked while I listened to the wife berating her husband for turning out to be so silly. "How could you conceivably manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place everyday in Somerset and that it's really nothing to stress about, even so he in spite of everything got an earful by his missus. I felt sorry for the guy. In any case, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove off I waved hasta la vista and thought about what my wife would do to me if ever I did the same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!

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 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.
