AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Gloucestershire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And obviously do not switch on the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

In case you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical skills and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
