AdBlue In your Fuel

In Bedfordshire we have encountered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely be careful not to crank the car - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the practical expertise and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist New Town - Wrong Fuel in Car New Town

I enjoyed a terrific evening golfing on my off day and was feeling contented with myself the following working day as I headed out to assist a new family who were on holiday in New Town. They stopped after inserting petrol into their light green Peugeot 407, and were about half an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this situation comes to pass everyday in Bedfordshire and that it's actually nothing to fret about, even so he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Poor lad. In any case, I drained all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove off I waved farewell and wondered what her indoors would ask me if I made the very same error... I'd under no circumstances 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.
