AdBlue In Diesel
All around Surrey we have encountered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?
Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And certainly be careful not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
In case you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

A woman from Epsom with a full car of children in her diesel uncle's Mercedes CLS-Class had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the Tesco petrol station. She contacted us sobbing and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that everything would be fine and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived she was visible distressed but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked.

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.
