AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we are discovering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the automobile.

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

Since the product is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously take care not to start the motor - not even to move it off the pump. If you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.
