AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in the event that you’ve put AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that’s made from a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be pulled into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In case you end up in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the specialised competence and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to help an elder sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel maroon Alfa Romeo Spider in Elmswell.

Wrong Fuel Assist Elmswell - Wrong Fuel in Car Elmswell

I had a fantastic day hiking during my off day and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I was en route to assist a young family who were away in Elmswell. They broken down after filling petrol into their blue Hyundai Sonata, and were around an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her partner off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this goes on constantly in East Riding of Yorkshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to worry about, however he yet still had his ear bent. Poor chap. Anyways, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if I made the very same error... I'd never hear the end of it!

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.
