AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lancashire we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely be careful not to crank the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Whenever you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the specialised expertise and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
