AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Wiltshire we have discovered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SN8 Postcode - Avebury Misfueling

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a rainy Wednesday and I was off to help an elder woman after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel apple green Mitsubishi Lancer in Avebury. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a country road en route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped the location into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been getting quite forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel because I had only just bought it a week back because my former car, which I had used for more than 25 years, eventually broke down". I got the job done and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a delightful Wiltshire lady!

I had a wonderful day golfing on my holiday and was feeling satisfied the following day as I set out to aid a young family who were vacationing in Avebury. They stopped after filling diesel in their canary yellow Toyota Corolla, and the car was around an hour away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for being so daft. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing goes on all the time in Wiltshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel.

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.
