AdBlue In your Fuel

In County Durham we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most certainly don't start the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DL5 Postcode - Redworth Misfueling

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Wednesday and I was off to help an elder woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel mate's Mazda B2000 in Redworth. She told us that she had left the petrol station and stranded in a backwater lane on route to visit her family. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I am getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel because I had just bought it a couple of days ago when my old one, which I owned for in excess of twenty five years, inevitably died on me". I finished the job and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a precious County Durham woman!

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
