AdBlue Contamination

All over Suffolk we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not being aware of the way to to make use of (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's like 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. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.
