They will fix the common troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Warwickshire we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of people not being totally sure how to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since the product is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

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.
  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.
