They can also handle any of the usual problems that could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Shropshire we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since the product is mainly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely take care not to start up the motor - not even to shift it into a parking place. In case you have started the car you will probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

If perhaps you get in this predicament don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.
