AdBlue Contamination

What you should do if you’ve put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid composed of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely damaging to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be dragged into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to devastating and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Contact us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue fluid 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.
