AdBlue In Diesel

In Hampshire we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not being totally sure how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely take care not to start up the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

In the event that you find yourself in this predicament don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
