AdBlue Contamination
In Oxfordshire we are identifying a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.
Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?
Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously be careful not to start the engine - not even to shift it to a parking area. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
In the event that you find yourself in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

I emerged at their car and laughed while I listened to the lady telling her man off for actually being so daft.
