The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have noticed increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not knowing the way to use it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely don't turn over the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In case you did start the car you will likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.
