AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Norfolk we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly do not start up the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you find yourself in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the specialised skills and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
