AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do if you have put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made from a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is actually harmful to your car's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with AdBlue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

Call us if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

We not long ago had a phone call from a motorist who had put the incorrect fuel in his grass green Audi S6 in Chilton Candover. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After inserting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't realize the issue before I stopped working. You took the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning . I was amazed by both how quick you were and your pricing". Of course we appeared punctually and flushed the engine after flushing the unleaded from the diesel tank. The driver was pleased as punch by the time we finished and he drove away satisfied.

This was the night shift. It was about 3:30am and nobody was about. It was pretty quiet so far, and me and Brian were relaxing looking at a number of old magazines. That was an uncommon quiet time in Hampshire. It was in fact so relaxing that the instant the phone rang it made me start! The voice explained: "I have only just finished my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in a mint green Cadillac Escalade by mistake". We got him to tell us where exactly the car was and we set off, ending up in Chilton Candover only 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the motor and he thanked us for getting there so quickly. While we were heading back home we noticed two girls at the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
