AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Buckinghamshire we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the vehicle.

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

Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously do not start the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.

  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.
