AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you may have poured AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid that is made out of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is actually devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SP3 Postcode - Chicklade Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Saturday and we were en route to assist an elder woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel yellow Toyota Solara in Chicklade. I had been informed she had left the petrol station and pulled up along a country lane along the way to see her godchildren. I popped her location into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had just got it a week ago right after my old one, which I had owned for over twenty five years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she gave me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely Wiltshire lady!

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.
