AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Wiltshire we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite 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 in your fuel tank empty it at once. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking place. If you have started the car you may very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.
