AdBlue Contamination

In Merton we are discovering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly do not switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

I had enjoyed a terrific afternoon cycling during my day off and was feeling contented with myself the following day as I was on the way to help a new family on holiday in Buckhurst Hill. They had pulled over after filling the wrong fuel into their expensive Skoda Superb, and they were about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and laughed while I heard to the gal chastising her partner for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this situation takes place everyday in Merton and that it is nothing to be anxious about, however he all the same had his ear bent. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed good-bye and wondered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
