AdBlue Contamination

In Hampshire we are identifying progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely do not crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

A customer from Silkstead with her children in her diesel grass green Lexus LX had put £50 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what might happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that everything would be fine and that she would be on the road very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable.

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.
