AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you’ve poured AdBlue into your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue will undoubtedly be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Call us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Rushmere - Wrong Fuel in Car Rushmere

I appreciated a fantastic day fishing during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a new family vacationing in Rushmere. They broken down after putting the wrong fuel into their rugged Audi Coupe GT, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I got there at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady chastising her husband for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs all the time in Bedfordshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, however he still had an earful. Poor chap. Anyways, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. As they drove off I waved goodbye and pondered on what my missus would do to me in the event that I made the exact same mistake... I'd 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.
