AdBlue Contamination

All over Buckinghamshire we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

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

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't start up the motor - not even to move it to a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

In the event that you find yourself in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised know-how and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
