The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Shropshire we have noticed an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely do not start up the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.
