AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we have discovered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

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

Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And definitely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Wentworth - Wrong Fuel in Car Wentworth

I enjoyed a fantastic afternoon hiking during my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the following day as I was on the way to aid a young family who were on vacation in Wentworth. They had stopped after adding diesel into their deep grey BMW 550, and the car was approximately an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the lady telling her hubby off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass everyday in Cambridgeshire and that it is nothing to fret about, even so he still got an earful. Poor lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I waved hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

A young lady employed in Wentworth contacted us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled car to her office. She had put petrol in her diesel apple green Fiat 500 and, like many prior to her, thought that she would be able to just top up the car with diesel and it'd run okay. The car was coughing and then it cut out when she came to the the front of her work. We quickly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted within one hour while she was in the office.

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.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
