AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Oxfordshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not start the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. If you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
