It's a mistake that can happen easily, especially with the different systems and tanks on modern lorries and commercial vehicles. If you've mistakenly poured AdBlue into your diesel fuel tank, the critical thing is do not start the engine or even turn the ignition key if you haven't already. AdBlue is a highly corrosive solution that, while essential for the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system, is disastrous when mixed with diesel in the fuel system.

We are Misfuelled Car Fixer, and we specialize in rapid, professional wrong fuel drain services for lorries and commercial vehicles across the region. We understand the urgency of getting your vehicle back on the road, and we're equipped to handle AdBlue contamination specifically.

AdBlue (which is a urea and deionized water solution) is designed to be injected into the exhaust system, not mixed with the fuel. When it mixes with the diesel in your fuel tank, it can cause:

Corrosion: AdBlue is corrosive and can damage the protective coatings and delicate components within your fuel tank, pump, and lines.

Contamination: The solution will not mix with the diesel, creating a thick, sludgy contamination that can quickly clog filters and damage the high-pressure fuel pump and injectors.

Expensive Repairs: If the engine is started, the contaminated fuel can circulate, leading to potential major system failures and extremely costly repair bills.

If you've realized the mistake, here's how we fix it quickly and safely:

Immediate Contact: Call us right away. The sooner we get to you, the less chance there is of further damage.

On-Site Fuel Drain: Our specialized mobile unit will travel directly to your lorry's location—be it on a roadside, depot, or service station.

Complete System Flush: We will safely and completely drain the entire contents of your diesel tank and fuel lines. Unlike a standard wrong fuel drain, an AdBlue contamination requires extra diligence to ensure all corrosive material is removed.

Refuel and Go: Once the system is verified as clean, we'll put enough fresh, clean diesel in the tank to get you safely to the nearest filling station.

We use ATEX-certified equipment for maximum safety and adhere to all environmental regulations for the disposal of the contaminated fuel.

Every minute counts when AdBlue is contaminating your fuel system. For fast, reliable, and professional service, call Misfuelled Car Fixer immediately.
