AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Warwickshire we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly be careful not to start up the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in CV33 Postcode - Wappenbury Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Tuesday and I was en route to help an old sweetheart who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel old Nissan Pathfinder in Wappenbury. I had been informed she drove away from the filling station and was pulled up on a rural lane en route to see her grandchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she explained, "I am getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel as I had only just bought it several days back because my former car, which I owned for over 30 years, finally stopped working". I got the job completed and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Warwickshire woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Wappenbury - Wrong Fuel in Car Wappenbury

I had a terrific afternoon golfing during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the following day as I was en route to aid a new couple holidaying in Wappenbury. They'd broken down after inserting the wrong fuel into their deep grey Ford Focus, and they were around half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the girl chastising her spouse for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass quite frequently in Warwickshire and that it's actually nothing at all to be concerned about, even so he still had an earful by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyways, I extracted all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove off I waved goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I would personally never live it down!

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.
