AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Shropshire we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers not knowing how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And absolutely do not crank the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Call us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Brownhill

Now I am not necessarily excessively inclined to running on weekends, and the other day was no different. I had just come away from the family following a wonderful lunch made by the wife, and I was en route to deal with a man who put the incorrect fuel in his compact Mazda B2600. He was somewhere in Brownhill hence I arrived on scene soon. Just as I drove up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I had my attention on other stuff and didn't ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about any harm by running it?" I explained that truth be told there should not be damage and that I'd get the fuel drained at once for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with some suitable fuel, and so one more happy client was able to continue on his traveling without any difficulty. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make working on Sundays in Shropshire a tiny bit easier for me!

She had put unleaded in her diesel new Isuzu i-350 and, like many before her, thought that she could just top up her car with diesel and it would be okay. The car was spluttering and then it died when she came to the entrance of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it resolved inside an hour or so while she was working. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you fixed my car."

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:

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

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.
