AdBlue In Your Diesel

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

AdBlue is a chemical made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

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:

    • 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.
