AdBlue In your Fuel

In Oxfordshire we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

In case you end up in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised knowledge and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
