AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in case you’ve poured AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is composed of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

To be honest, when he initially called us he said he would like to check around, but he called us back soon enough because our rate and on-scene times were the most desirable.

A gentleman rang us from his home on a close in Red Hill. He explained, "My vehicle (a company's Ford Transit) is not starting and is making very bad noises when I flip the key." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.

We got a telephone call from a man whose mom's Daihatsu Charade had conked out on a street after a misfuel. "I mixed up the pumps and pumped the wrong fuel in my car . You arrived and sorted out the problem after my vehicle gave up." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel system thoroughly and the gentleman could carry on with his deliveries.

It truly was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was around 2 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It was rather dead up to now, and me and Paul were sitting around browsing several old articles. It was an uncommon calm time in Worcestershire. Actually it was that relaxing that the instant the phone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The customer told me: "I just concluded my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel pristine Cadillac SRX by mistake". I asked him to inform us where he was and we hit the road, arriving in Red Hill no more than an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the motor and he thanked us for coming so fast. As we were returning home we saw two young ladies at the side of the road who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

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.

Commonplace Misfuel Signs and symptoms:
