AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Staffordshire we are encountering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from people not understanding how to work with it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely never start up the car - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Should you discover yourself to be in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
