AdBlue Contamination

In Dorset we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most certainly never crank the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Tuesday and I was on my way to help an older lady who put petrol in her diesel metallic blue Honda Accord in Gaunts Common. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down in a backwater lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched in the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I got to the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel because I had only bought it a few days back when my old car, which I owned for about twenty five years, finally died". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a delightful Dorset woman!

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 VA 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.
