AdBlue In Diesel

All over Herefordshire we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely take care not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In case you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel because I had only just bought it a short while ago right after my other car, which I owned for in excess of twenty years, eventually died". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Herefordshire woman!
