AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Gloucestershire we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being aware of how to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the car.
Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?
As the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.
Give us a call in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.
