In due time we received the phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Hammer and put petrol in her diesel navy blue Isuzu Impulse lease car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly agitated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!"

AdBlue In Diesel

All over West Sussex we have seen more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since the product is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never start the car - not even to move it to a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.
