AdBlue In your Fuel

All around North Yorkshire we are noticing progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the car you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.
