AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Cambridgeshire we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people not understanding the right way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course take care not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix every type of AdBlue liquid 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:

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

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.
