AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you have put AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be pulled into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

I had a perfect evening hiking during my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following day as I set off to help a new family who were on holiday in Hampstead Garden Suburb. They had broken down after inserting diesel in their new Seat Alhumbra, and they were about an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman chastising her spouse for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this happens constantly in Barnet and that it is nothing to get worried about, however he yet still got an ear bashing. I felt sorry for the boy. At any rate, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would tell me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never live it down!

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 VA 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.
