AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Herefordshire we are identifying progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to people not being aware of how to work with it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly don't turn over the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the practical expertise and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in HR9 Postcode - Shutton Misfueling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a rainy Saturday and I was off to assist an old lovely lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel mate's Land Rover Range Rover Sport in Shutton. I'd been advised she drove away from the petrol station and stranded on a backwater road along the way to see her grandchildren. I punched the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing it she said, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd only just got it a short while back because my former car, which I had for about 30 years, finally died on me". I got the job completed and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Herefordshire lady!

Therefore, if you've filled your petrol vehicle with the wrong fuel, or put petrol in your diesel automobile wherever in Herefordshire, speak to us immediately. Our experienced mechanics are all set and waiting for your call.

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.
