The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Herefordshire we have seen more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the car.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And definitely be careful not to turn over the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

    • 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.
