AdBlue In your Fuel

In West Sussex we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And obviously do not start the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix all types of AdBlue liquid 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:

  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.
