AdBlue In Diesel

All over Essex we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely never turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the car you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
