AdBlue In Diesel

All over West Sussex we are noticing progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not knowing how to work with it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in 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 seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out right away. And obviously don't switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In case you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Call us in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle all kinds 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:

  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.
