AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Wiltshire we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to crank the motor - not even to shift it to a parking area. In case you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Phone us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
