AdBlue In Diesel

All around Tyne and Wear we have found progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to people not knowing how to use it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously don't start the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Any time you find yourself in this scenario don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NE28 Postcode - Holy Cross Misfueling

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Tuesday and I was on the way to assist an older lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel blue Volvo XC90 in Holy Cross. I had been told she had left the petrol station and stranded in a rural lane on route to see her family. I got the location plugged into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour. I got to the car and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I had only bought it a short while ago when my old car, which I had used for more than thirty years, finally broke down". I got the drain done and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Tyne and Wear lady!

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.
