The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Westminster we have seen an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. In case you have started the car you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Phone us in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

It truly was an unsociable time to be awake. It was about sunrise and almost noone was about. It was pretty uneventful until now, and Paul and I were sitting around reading through several old articles. This was an unusual peaceful moment in Westminster. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that when the telephone rang it made me start! The motorist said: "I have concluded my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in a diesel burgundy red Skoda Superb".
