AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Kent we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may well result in idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations pretty easily.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.
