It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Paul and I were resting there going over the weekend's rugby results, waiting around for the next job that day to come in. Finally we received the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Ovington and put the wrong fuel in her diesel mint condition Jeep Cherokee hire car by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was running a diesel!"

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Northumberland we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In case you did start the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle all types of AdBlue contamination.
