AdBlue In your Fuel
All around West Sussex we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not understanding how to use it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the car.
So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car?
As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to crank the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. If you have started the car you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
If perhaps you discover yourself to be in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the specialised expertise and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
