She was pretty troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Wiltshire we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the automobile.

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

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And definitely don't start up the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you will probably need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

If you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical competence and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
