AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you have poured AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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.

• 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.
