The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Leicestershire we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists not understanding how to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly do not turn over the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you will in all probability need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

In case you find yourself in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
