Before long we received the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Lower Bartle and put petrol in her diesel bright white Jeep Compass hire car. The unfortunate thing was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly do happen.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Lancashire we are noticing an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Call us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

• 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.
