AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Dorset we have found a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly take care not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct 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:

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.
