AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hertfordshire we have found a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out right away. And most definitely never start up the car - not even to move it to a parking area. If you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Call us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

This really was the graveyard shift. It was close to dawn and nobody was about. It had been pretty dead up to now, and me and Mark were relaxing browsing some old papers. That was a rare restful hour in Hertfordshire. It was indeed that quiet that the instant the telephone ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist told me: "I have concluded my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a diesel metallic grey Jeep Wrangler". I told him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was and we hit the road, ending up in Old Knebworth under 30 minutes later.
