AdBlue Contamination

All around West Sussex we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being aware of the right way to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it asap. And absolutely do not start the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. In case you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Stonequarry - Wrong Fuel in Car Stonequarry

I had a great day cycling during my off day and was feeling cheerful the next day as I was on the way to aid a new family who were on holiday in Stonequarry. They pulled over after putting petrol into their black Mercedes SLK-Class, and they were around an hour away. I arrived at their location and laughed as I listened to the gal telling off her man for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass all the time in West Sussex and that it's actually nothing to stress about, even so he still got an ear bashing by his missus. Poor chap. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove away I waved good bye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the same error... I'd 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.

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.
