AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in case you may have poured AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid composed of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is certainly harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with AdBlue in your diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

What a good night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Tuesday and I was on my way to help an older sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel new VW GLI in Hitchin. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and pulled up along a backwater road on the way to see her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I arrived at the car and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "I'm becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only just got it a week ago after my former car, which I'd had for in excess of 25 years, finally died on me". I got the drain completed and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Hertfordshire lady!

This was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and noone was stirring. It was pretty uneventful until now, and Brian and I were sitting about browsing a few old newspapers. That was an unusual quiet moment in Hertfordshire. It was indeed that peaceful that the instant the telephone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist explained: "I've ended my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel friend's Vauxhall Combo in error". I instructed him to inform us exactly where he was and we hit the road, ending up in Hitchin not as much as 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was removed from the engine and he said many thanks for showing up so fast. As we were returning home we found two young ladies on the side of the street who seemed like they suffered a puncture. As a result we got out to change it, much to their delight.

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.
