AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around County Durham we are noticing increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly don't crank the motor - not even to move it to a parking spot. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.
