The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Gloucestershire we have discovered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most certainly don't crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In cases where you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

In the event that you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the specialised competence and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
