We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue Contamination

In Essex we are identifying more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly due to people not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously never crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
