AdBlue Contamination
All around Wiltshire we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?
As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly take care not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.
Contact us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

This was exactly an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly 2 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It was rather uneventful thus far, and Ryan and I were relaxing looking through a few old newspapers. That was an uncommon calm moment in Wiltshire. It was indeed so peaceful that the moment the telephone rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist stated: "I've just completed my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in a trusty Mitsubishi Montero". I got him to tell us exactly where he was located and we set off, arriving in Ashton Common less than an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He thanked us for getting there so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we spotted two girls on the edge of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up to change it, to their elation.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
