AdBlue In Diesel

All around Norfolk we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not understanding the right way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

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

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely never switch on the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. If you did start the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist Worstead - Wrong Fuel in Car Worstead

I appreciated a terrific day hiking during my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the following morning as I set off to assist a young family on holiday in Worstead. They had broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their old BMW X6 M, and they were close to half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the wife telling her partner off for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs on daily basis in Norfolk and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, but he still got his ear bent. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive off I waved so long and pondered on what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the same error... I'd personally never ever live it down!
