AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And of course never start the car - not even to move it off the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.
