AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you have poured AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix every type of AdBlue contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SG11 Postcode - Colliers End Misfueling

Just had a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a warm Sunday and I was on the way to help an older woman after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel rugged Vauxhall Monaro in Colliers End. I'd been told she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up along a country road on route to see her family. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour or so. I got to the location and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I have been getting quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd only just bought it a couple of days ago when my former one, which I'd had for more than 25 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. What a lovely Hertfordshire lady!

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.
