AdBlue In Diesel

All over Derbyshire we are discovering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people not understanding the way to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Wrong Fuel Assist Holbrook - Wrong Fuel in Car Holbrook

I'd had a great evening hiking on my day off and felt satisfied the next working day as I was on the way to help a young couple away in Holbrook. They had pulled over after putting diesel in their son's Volkswagen GLI, and they were approximately an hour away. I got there at their location and smiled while I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this problem occurs everyday in Derbyshire and that it's actually nothing at all to stress about, nonetheless he still got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the same error... I would personally never live it down!

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.
