AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Hampshire we are identifying progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of people not understanding how to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely do not start up the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the technical competence and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GU32 Postcode - West Meon Misfueling

Wrong Fuel Assist West Meon - Wrong Fuel in Car West Meon

I had a perfect day fishing during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next morning as I set out to help a young family holidaying in West Meon. They broken down after inserting petrol in their sunflower yellow Cadillac Eldorado, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you even manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing happens everyday in Hampshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, however he all the same got an earful. Poor guy. Anyway, I drained all of the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I mouthed so long and thought about what my wife would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

This was what we call the night shift. It was close to sunrise and nobody was about. It had become quite dead until now, and Ryan and I were relaxing looking at some old magazines. That was an uncommon quiet hour in Hampshire. Actually it was so tranquil that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The person on the phone explained: "I have just completed my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel brand new Range Rover by mistake". We asked him to inform us exactly where he was situated and we hit the road, getting to him in West Meon no more than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the motor and he said thanks for coming out so promptly. While we were coming back home we found two young ladies at the side of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.

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.
