AdBlue In your Fuel
How to handle it in the event that you’ve poured AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?
AdBlue is a liquid 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, especially in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.
Contact us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct every type of AdBlue contamination.
